Stamped Caution by Raymond Z. Gallun audiobook.

Genre: scifi

When a strange spacecraft slams into a Missouri hillside, the Army moves in fast, sealing the site behind barbed wire and unanswered questions. Colonel Miller and a small team of investigators and scientists pick through scorched metal, radioactive fuel residue, and baffling machinery that looks unsettlingly familiar in places and utterly alien in others. Then they find the most troubling piece of evidence of all: a living Martian infant, sealed in a protective capsule, too fragile to send back and too unprecedented to ignore.Nicknamed Etl, the creature becomes the focus of a long, secret experiment in care, observation, and communication. As Etl grows from a helpless oddity into a curious, thinking being, the team faces escalating pressures from military protocol, scientific ambition, and the fear of what first contact might cost. Is Etl a guest, a specimen, or the opening move in an interplanetary encounter? And if humanity cannot even agree on what he is, how can they hope to meet his people on honest terms?Stamped Caution is a tense, humane classic of first contact science fiction, asking who the real monsters are when the unknown arrives.

Love Among the Chickens by P. G. Wodehouse audiobook.

Genre: comedy

P. G. Wodehouse's Love Among the Chickens is a bright, fast-talking comedy of friendship, optimism, and spectacularly bad planning. The story is related by steady, long-suffering Jeremy Garnet, a struggling writer who is persuaded to join his irrepressible school friend, Stanley Featherstonehaugh Ukridge, in a bold new venture: chicken farming. Ukridge has the confidence of a born entrepreneur and the attention span of a man chasing the next great idea, and he is certain their farm will make them rich in no time. What Jeremy gets instead is a rural crash course in unpaid bills, improvised business strategy, and the daily chaos of keeping both poultry and creditors at bay. Complicating matters is Jeremy's growing attachment to a sensible young woman whose good opinion is hard to maintain when your closest companion treats common sense as an optional extra. As the farm wobbles from one misadventure to another, Jeremy must decide how far loyalty should stretch, what it costs to keep the peace, and whether any scheme can survive on charm alone.
