Space Prison by Tom Godwin audiobook.

Genre: scifi

When the colony ship Constellation flees a newly declared interstellar war, its 8,000 passengers believe salvation lies ahead on Athena, a green world beyond the reach of the expanding Gern Empire. Then the Gerns find them. With the ship crippled and air running out, surrender is forced, and the invaders sort human lives with cold efficiency: the skilled become Acceptables, taken onward as slave labor, while the rest are branded Rejects and dumped on the nearest so-called Earth-type planet. Irene Lois Humbolt and her five-year-old son, Billy, are among those abandoned on Ragnarok, a world of punishing gravity, scarce metals, predatory wildlife, and a swift, lethal fever that can erase hard-won progress overnight. Cut off from technology and from the loved ones stolen away to Athena, the survivors must forge shelter, tools, and rules from whatever the planet allows, while grief and anger threaten to splinter them from within. Spanning years and then generations, Space Prison follows a people remade by an unforgiving planet as they fight to stay human, stay alive, and keep a single, dangerous hope burning: that one day the Gerns will answer for what they have done.

The Adventures of Reddy Fox by Thornton W. Burgess audiobook.

Genre: adventure

The Adventures of Reddy Fox is another in the series of children’s stories by conservationist Thornton W. Burgess. In this story, Reddy and Granny Fox must outsmart Farmer Brown’s Boy who is out to get Reddy for stealing his pet chicken. Along the way, Reddy encounters many of the citizens of the Green Meadows and the Green Forest and with him we learn little lessons about life such as: the perils of being a show off; the importance of using all of one’s senses; that it is a fine thing to show sympathy and kindness to others – even our enemies; and that the value of a grandmother’s wisdom is inestimable.

We also learn that after you’ve stolen a boy’s pet chicken and he is coming your way with a gun, a shovel and a hound dog, it may be time to beat a hasty retreat.

Unidentified Flying Objects by United States Federal Bureau of Investigation audiobook.

Genre: science

Through the U.S. Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) this series of communications has been de-classified and made public. Most names have been omitted, however much information of the sightings of UFOs in 1947 can be gleaned from these communications which were primarily between the FBI and other U.S. Government and military organizations.

It should be noted that the U.S. Air Force only became a separate entity in 1947, having split from the U.S. Army at that time. And they became very busy times for the fledgling military organization. The slant of this de-classified material is chiefly written communications between the FBI and the military machine in 1947. Correspondence herein spans July and August of 1947 which will forever remain as the beginning of serious first-hand UFO experience in the annals of history.
