The Amateur Cracksman by E. W. Hornung audiobook.
Genre: mystery
'I'd tasted blood, and it was all over with me. Why should I work when I could steal? Why settle down to some humdrum uncongenial billet, when excitement, romance, danger and a decent living were all going begging together?'- A. J. Raffles, The Ides of March.
The Amateur Cracksman is the first collection of stories about A. J. Raffles, gentleman, cricketer, and thief. After stopping his old school friend, Bunny Manders, from a desperate attempt at suicide, Raffles introduces the unsuspecting Bunny to a new way of earning a living, burglary. Though frequently horrified by Raffles's actions, the conscience-stricken Bunny stands by him through all their adventures, firm to his promise, 'When you want me, I'm your man!'

The Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri audiobook.
Genre: poetry
The Divine Comedy (Italian: Commedia, later christened 'Divina' by Giovanni Boccaccio), written by Dante Alighieri between 1308 and his death in 1321, is widely considered the central epic poem of Italian literature, the last great work of literature of the Middle Ages and the first great work of the Renaissance. A culmination of the medieval world-view of the afterlife, it establishes the Tuscan dialect in which it is written as the Italian standard, and is seen as one of the greatest works of world literature. - The Divine Comedy is composed of three canticas (or 'cantiche') — Inferno (Hell), Purgatorio (Purgatory), and Paradiso (Paradise) — composed each of 33 cantos (or 'canti'). The very first canto serves as an introduction to the poem and is generally not considered to be part of the first cantica, bringing the total number of cantos to 100. - The poet tells in the first person his travel through the three realms of the dead, lasting during the Easter Triduum in the spring of 1300

Fighting the Flying Circus by Eddie Rickenbacker audiobook.
Genre: biography
In Fighting the Flying Circus, Eddie Rickenbacker - the American ace who rose from a hard-scrabble childhood and a career in racing to the cockpit of a fighter plane - recounts his World War I service with vivid, ground-level immediacy. Thrown into the new and terrifying world of aerial combat, Rickenbacker describes the steep learning curve of flying fragile machines, the strain of constant patrols, and the split-second decisions that separate survival from disaster. At the heart of the story is his drive to master both the mechanics of flight and the psychology of combat, while coping with loss, fear, and the pressure of being counted on by his squadron. The book follows his path from eager volunteer to seasoned pilot as he faces the legendary German airmen Americans nicknamed the 'Flying Circus,' and as he wrestles with what courage really costs. Part memoir, part combat chronicle, it is a firsthand account of a war fought above the trenches - where victory depends on skill, nerve, and the will to keep climbing back into the sky.
