The Lone Star Ranger by Zane Grey audiobook.

Genre: adventure

Buck Duane, son of a famous gunfighter, falls prey to the old problem - called out by a cowboy who wants to make trouble, Duane kills him and then must ride off to the lawless country near the Neuces River to escape being arrested and perhaps, hanged. His brief encounter with deadly gun-play has ignited a deep urging to repeat the adrenaline rush but is tempered by ghosts that haunt his sleep. He only dares to release his inner demon when he is taking down an outlaw who is particularly known for his brutality.

He develops a reputation for killing the most notorious Texas outlaws, which draws an unexpected interest: a captain of the Texas Rangers offers him a pardon and a ranger's badge if he will infiltrate the gang of the shadowy figure known as 'Cheseldine' who wields vast power in West Texas, and make it possible for the Rangers to break the gang's hold on the region's towns. Duane accepts, never guessing in his wildest nightmares that he would sniff out this Cheseldine, his hideouts, his lieutenants... and fall in love with his daughter!

Beasts, Men and Gods by Ferdinand Ossendowski ~ Full Audiobook [adventure]

Beasts, Men and Gods by Ferdinand Ossendowski audiobook.

Genre: adventure

“Beasts, Men and Gods” is an account of an epic journey, filled with perils and narrow escapes, in the mold of “The Lord of the Rings.”

The difference is: it’s all true.

Ferdinand Ossendowski was a Pole who found himself in Siberia and on the losing side during the Bolshevik Revolution. To escape being rounded up and shot, he set out with a friend to reach the Pacific, there to take ship back to Europe. During his journey he fell in with dozens of other military men who shared the same objective... but nearly every one of them perished on the way.

It’s up to you to decide whether Ossendowski was threatened most by the beasts, by the men, or by the gods, or indeed, by the severe and uncompromising landscapes of Siberia, Mongolia, and China. That he survived at all seems improbable. The mystical mysteries and magics of Buddhism, “The Yellow Faith”, were woven about and through his sojourn and had no little part in his survival. Time after time he was put in the delicate position of being the bargainer between warring groups, and ultimately, only incredible luck and his friendship with the Hutuktu of Narabanchi Monastery saw him through.

When published in the United States, this book caused a sensation and became a best-seller.

Socialism - Utopian and Scientific by Friedrich Engels ~ Full Audiobook [philosophy]

Socialism - Utopian and Scientific by Friedrich Engels audiobook.

Genre: philosophy

In Socialism - Utopian and Scientific, Friedrich Engels offers a brisk, combative guide to how modern socialism emerged, what it claims to explain, and why it insists it is more than a moral wish list. Writing for readers who may know the slogans but not the underlying arguments, Engels contrasts early, 'utopian' reformers who imagined ideal communities with a later 'scientific' approach grounded in a materialist account of history. He walks through the rise of industrial capitalism, the sharpening conflicts between social classes, and the way economic systems transform politics, culture, and everyday life. Along the way, Engels sketches the philosophical roots of his method, explains why social change is driven by contradictions within society itself, and argues that socialism is tied to the development of modern industry and the working-class movement rather than to pure good intentions. Part primer, part polemic, the book invites the listener to examine how ideas about progress, property, and power connect to the concrete realities of production and labor, and why Engels believed a new social order could be understood as a historical process rather than a dream.
