A Little Maid of Province Town by Alice Turner Curtis audiobook.

Genre: adventure

On the windy tip of Cape Cod, in the small fishing settlement of Province Town, eight-year-old Anne Nelson is suddenly alone: her mother is gone, and her seafaring father has vanished, leaving only rumors in his wake. When Captain Enos Stoddard and his kind-hearted wife, Martha, take Anne into their home, she hopes she has finally found safety - but the village is uneasy. British ships prowl the coast as tensions rise toward revolution, and some neighbors whisper that Anne's father was a traitor. Branded a 'spy's daughter' by other children, Anne must learn whom to trust while proving she is more than the stories people tell about her family. Between chores, schoolroom lessons, and the simple comforts of a household that begins to feel like her own, Anne is swept into a chain of coastal mishaps and small adventures - missing animals, dangerous wanderings, and unexpected encounters that reveal how close the conflict has come to shore. As Anne grows braver and more capable, her greatest challenge remains the same: finding her place, and finding the truth about the father she still believes will return.

Kidnapped by Robert Louis Stevenson audiobook.

Genre: adventure

David Balfour, a lad of seventeen and newly orphaned, is directed to go and live with his rich uncle, the master of the estate of Shaws in the lowlands of Scotland near Edinburgh. His uncle, Ebenezer (as close a miser as Dickens' Ebenezer Scrooge), is shocked to suddenly have his young relative descend on him and tries to rid himself of David with an arranged accident. Failing that, he pays the captain of a brig to kidnap David and sell him into slavery in Carolina.

A collision in the fog brings onboard the brig a survivor, Alan Breck Stewart, who is carrying a dangerous amount of gold on his person. David warns him of a plan by the brig's captain and crew to overpower him and seize the money, and then finds himself fighting alongside Alan in a battle royale. By good fortune, Alan is handy with a sword and they have access to the firearms locker, and the pair so completely defeat the crew that barely enough hands remain to sail her. Limping to port, she is holed by rocks, and David finds himself a castaway.

Being in Alan's presence continues to be a chancey business. David is talking to Colin Roy Campbell, the King's Factor who has been oppressing Alan's people, when the man is shot to death, and David is chased as an accomplice. The two 'take to the heather' and barely survive near brushes with redcoats as they thread through the Trossachs and other highland ranges of Scotland. Only after an arduous weeks-long trek through territory where they are actively hunted do they emerge in the more settled districts around the river Forth, only to find guards upon the bridge. With no money remaining, they must somehow cross to Queensferry, find Ebenezer's lawyer, and lay claim to David's inheritance in order to send Alan safely on to France.

Humility by Andrew Murray ~ Full Audiobook [religion]

Humility by Andrew Murray audiobook.

Genre: religion

In Humility, South African pastor and devotional writer Andrew Murray offers a clear, searching guide to the virtue he calls the root of all Christian life: genuine humility before God. Drawing on Scripture and the example of Jesus Christ, Murray argues that humility is not self-contempt or passivity, but a joyful surrender of self-rule that makes room for God's presence and power. With the care of a spiritual physician, he names the subtle ways pride hides in religious activity, reputation, and even apparent goodness, and he invites readers into a different way of living: dependence, gentleness, teachability, and quiet confidence grounded in grace. Each chapter functions like a meditation, combining practical exhortation with prayerful reflection, calling the reader to examine motives, relationships, and daily habits. The central conflict is inward and persistent: the struggle between self-exaltation and the life of Christ formed within. Written in Murray's warm, direct style, Humility speaks to anyone who longs for deeper spiritual growth and a faith marked not by performance, but by Christlike love.
