Brother Cadfael One corpse
too many
Audio book Language: German
Brother
Cadfael, the twelfth-century herbalist and monk, has another murder to
solve. This story, the second in the series of 20, brings us to Shrewsbury
Abbey, which is caught amid the battle for the throne between King Stephen
and Empress Maud. King Stephen and his
army successfully invade Shrewsbury, and because he has been accused of
being too lenient before, Stephen orders the hanging of the 94 men of arms
captured... After the grim execution is completed, Cadfael becomes
responsible for giving the men a decent burial. With his sharp eye, he
notices that there is one corpse too many, a 95th man who was not part of
the execution...

Quo
vadis
by Henryk Sienkiewicz Publisher: Petra
Kehl Narrator: Christian Büsen
5 Audio-CDs, 350 minutes
(approx.)
A Narrative of the Time of Nero, is a love story of
Marcus Vinicius, a passionate young Roman tribune, and Lygia Callina, a
beautiful and gentle Christian maiden of royal Lygian descent and a
hostage of Rome, raised in a patrician home. At first Marcus, a typical
aristocratic Roman libertine of his time, has no notion of love and merely
desires Lygia with erotic animalistic intensity. Through political
machinations of the elegant Petronius he contrives to have her taken by
force from her foster home and into the decadent and terrible splendor of
the court of Ceasar, setting in motion a course of events that culminate
in his own spiritual redemption.
