The Wailing Octopus by Harold L. Goodwin audiobook.

Genre: adventure

Rick Brant and his best friend, Don 'Scotty' Scott, expect an easygoing trip to the Caribbean: sunshine, diving, and a shot at a legend. Off Clipper Cay in the Virgin Islands lies the wreck of a pirate ship rumored to have gone down with a priceless prize - a golden Spanish statue lost for centuries. Joining the boys are two very different scientists: archaeologist Dr. Tony Briotti, eager to explore submerged artifacts, and physicist Dr. Hobart Zircon, who would be perfectly happy to fish and relax. But the moment they arrive, a chance meeting with JANIG security agent Steve Ames hints that someone else is watching the island and the waters around it. Soon, strange harassment escalates into real danger, fueled by whispers of a terrifying 'wailing octopus' that drives people away from the cay. As Rick and Scotty press on with their underwater search, they find themselves caught between science, treasure hunters, and shadowy foreign operatives - and with a hurricane brewing, time and safety are running out. Fast, clever, and packed with hands-on tech and diving detail, this installment tests how far bravery and clear thinking can go when the sea turns hostile.

Rip Foster Rides the Gray Planet by Harold L. Goodwin audiobook.

Genre: scifi

'Foster, Lieutenant, R. I. P.,' blared the voice horn, and five minutes later Rip Foster was off into space on an assignment more exciting than any he had ever imagined. He could hardly believe his ears. Could a green young Planeteer, just through his training, possibly carry out orders like these? Sunny space, what a trick it would be! From the moment Rip boards the space ship Scorpius there is a thrill a minute. He and his nine daring Planeteers must cope with the merciless hazing of the spacemen commanding the ship, and they must outwit the desperate Connies, who threaten to plunge all of space into war. There are a thousand dangers to be faced in high vacuum—and all of this while carrying out an assignment that will take every reader's breath away.

Janet of the Dunes by Harriet T. Comstock audiobook.

Genre: family

Known primarily for her children's books, Harriet T. Comstock would occasionally depart from that genre and showcase her writing talent in adult prose as well. Janet of the Dunes is one such departure wherein she masterfully takes us into the lives of the bold men and women who tended those life saving stations along the seaboard which many a ship relied upon for their safety. They were simple people, large of heart and as close-knit as a tiny community can and must ever be, and they, above all else, took their duties very seriously. The story revolves primarily around Janet and her 'Cap'n Billy Daddy' and how their lives and their devotion to one another are touched by the others within the small circle of people of the dunes, the hills, and the light.
