1. DHV The island of a thousand lighthouses
The audiobook event of the year. A new adventure from the fantastic continent of Zamonia by the successful duo Walter Moers and Hildegunst von Mythenmetz. Read by Andreas Fröhlich. "Four to eight weeks in this climate, and you'll practically have two new lungs, maybe even three." When a doctor sends Hildegunst von Mythenmetz to a spa in Eydernorn, he has no idea what dangerous adventure his patient is about to embark on. Known for its magnificent lighthouses, the healthiest island in the North Sea initially promises pure relaxation for the ailing artist – if it weren't for its strange inhabitants and eerie natural phenomena. Mythenmetz encounters Belphegators and beach runners, frost rats, and the legendary evil, the Quaquappa. Eydernorn, it seems, poses a danger to the entire world. And the spa guest is reluctantly chosen to save it... Known to Moers fans as the most significant writer of the continent of Zamonia, Hildegunst von Mythenmetz once again becomes the hero of a wildly adventurous novel that captivates both young and old with suspense, quirky ideas, and overflowing wordplay. Like every Zamonia novel, "The Island of a Thousand Lighthouses" tells a self-contained story that entertains newcomers while effortlessly paving the way into Moers's cosmos.

6. DHV Tolkien:The Battle of Maldon and The
J. R. R. Tolkien's adaptation of the Old English poem into modern times and his inspiration for his own verse drama "The Homecoming of Beorhtnoth." England in the 10th century. A Viking army encounters the defenders of Essex near the town of Maldon. Two men stumble across the battlefield at night. One is a young lad with his head full of dreams. The other is an old farmer who has seen many battles. As they search in the dark for the body of their lord, they explore in conversation the tensions between youth and age, pagan and Christian worldviews, the ideals of loyalty and community, and the question of what heroism means. The dramatic dialogue is complemented by the verse epic "The Homecoming of Beorhtnoth," written by J. R. R. Tolkien, which also addresses the Battle of Maldon and focuses on the hero's return. Both epics ultimately flow into the world of "The Lord of the Rings." Unabridged reading with Gert Heidenreich, Timmo Niesner, Johannes Steck, 1 MP3-CD, 8h 37min.

A celebration of humor by Spiegel bestselling author Walter Moers – narrated by Andreas Fröhlich.
A unicorn who prefers to live backwards; a werewolf who wants to be a Wiewolf; a carnivorous plant that wishes to eat vegetarian; a troll bloodhound who would rather be a scratch – many inhabitants of the continent Zamonien struggle with their identity and therefore lead a challenging life. But whether it's a Dummwolf or a Schlaufuchs, a Schmiegehäschen or a Halbtagsfliege, a Silver Widow or a Buchling, they all find their way in this world where imagination and humor have completely spiraled out of control.
Twenty Zamonian Flabeln about various forms of Zamonian existence from the pen of bestselling author Hildegunst von Mythenmetz, brilliantly translated, illustrated, and accompanied by an afterword – "Humor is serious business" – by Walter Moers. And, of course, narrated by Andreas Fröhlich, in an unabridged version.
The "Flabel" refers to a humorously anarchic Zamonian short story that, unlike the classic animal fable, has no moral.
Unabridged reading with Andreas Fröhlich.
