Anything Once by Douglas Grant audiobook.

Genre: adventure

When Lou Lacey, a tough, undersized teenage girl with a bundle of stolen provisions and nowhere she is willing to call home, slips through a wheat field to the road, she finds a young man unconscious in the dust with blood on his temple. He introduces himself as James (Jim) Botts, a New Yorker in battered travel clothes and on a strict deadline to reach the city on foot, with pride and principle leaving him little room to ask for help. Lou patches him up and, before either of them can decide whether to trust the other, circumstance forces them into an uneasy partnership. Together they push eastward from small villages toward Buffalo and then New York City, measuring each mile in hunger, fatigue, and hard choices. Along the way they meet strangers who offer bargains, scams, kindness, and temptation in equal measure, and the pair must learn how to navigate trains, roads, and the unwritten rules of survival without money to spare. As Jim's private purpose collides with Lou's secret fear of being claimed and controlled, their journey becomes a test of identity, loyalty, and what it really means to be free, even for just one more day.

Raiders of the Universes by Donald Wandrei audiobook.

Genre: scifi

It was the 34th century and all five of the Federation of Planets around Sol were buzzing with their usual activity when the Raiders appeared. They were indeed Raiders of Universes because they had ravaged many systems before reaching Earth and showed no signs of slowing down in the least. Their weapons were invincible, their greed merciless and their natures completely alien. Indeed 'they' were from another dimension entirely. Eating up entire solar systems and planets, they slowed down just a bit when intelligent life was found on Earth. Not much since they were in a hurry, but just long enough to tell the Earthlings to mine all the Radium ore on Earth and put it conveniently on the surface ...... in six days....or else. -

First Lensman by E. E. Smith audiobook.

Genre: scifi

In a galaxy clawing its way out of chaos, Earth and its neighboring worlds struggle to police the new lanes of interstellar travel. Veteran officer Virgil Samms has seen too much to believe the rising wave of piracy is just opportunism. Ship after ship vanishes, outposts go silent, and every investigation points to a smarter, darker hand at work - a hidden power using criminals, corporations, and politics as disposable pieces. As Samms helps forge the Galactic Patrol into a force that can stand against the void, he is drawn into a conflict that is far larger than any border dispute: a shadow war whose true enemy prefers to remain unseen. Then an encounter with an ancient, enigmatic intelligence changes the stakes. Samms is offered a strange tool and a greater responsibility - a Lens - and with it the first step toward creating a new kind of guardian. First Lensman launches E. E. Smith's classic space opera with blistering action, grand-scale strategy, and a theme of disciplined service set against an almost mythic struggle for the future of sentient life.
