[German] - Adam und die Jagd nach der zerbrochenen Zeit (ungekürzt)

"Adam lebt bei seinem Onkel und hilft ihm in der Bäckerei, bevor sein Leben auf den Kopf gestellt wird. 'Dir stehen fantastische Dinge bevor', prophezeit ihm ein mysteriöser Mann, kurz bevor Adam auf dem Dachboden eine verstaubte Schneekugel findet. Als er die Kugel schüttelt, geschieht Unfassbares: Adam reist in der Zeit zurück! Mal ist es 1922, dann 1935, ein andermal 1967. Und immer trifft er auf Menschen, deren Schicksale ihn berühren. Nach und nach stellt Adam eine Verbindung zwischen den Zielen seiner Zeitreisen her. Sie alle scheinen mit einer alten Legende zu tun zu haben: Drei magische Gegenstände machen es möglich, Vergangenheit, Gegenwart und Zukunft zu beeinflussen. Einer davon ist Adams Schneekugel. Nun ist es an ihm, die beiden anderen Gegenstände zu finden - bevor sie in die Hände gefährlicher Gegenspieler fallen. Und kann Adam in die Zeit zurückreisen, um die Explosion der Kerzenfabrik zu verhindern? Julian Greis nimmt uns mit auf ein spannendes Abenteuer durch Raum und Zeit, in der sich menschliche Schicksale entscheiden."

G.Z. Schmidt (Author), Julian Greis (Narrator)

The Dreamweavers

"Mei and Yun Wu have always been different from the other kids in the village. They’ve learned not to talk about why. But now, as this year’s Mid-Autumn Festival approaches, the twelve-year-olds find that they are exactly like everyone else: bursting with excitement. That’s because word of their grandfather’s incredible mooncakes has reached the Emperor of China himself. And on festival night, the emperor’s son will arrive to sample Grandpa’s mooncakes and report back to His Majesty. The twins can hardly dare to dream what might come of the prince’s praise. Unfortunately, when disaster strikes on the big night, what happens in the aftermath is the stuff of nightmares. Mei and Yun are suddenly left to rescue both their grandfather and their village from a terrible fate. And while the twins have always been able to count on each other, this situation, steeped in ancient magic and tales of curses and revenge, is exactly the sort that’s powerful enough to snap the ties that bind."

No Ordinary Thing

"When a mysterious customer tells Adam great things await him in the attic of his uncle’s bakery, he brushes off the exchange. It’s 1999 in New York City—and Adam has already met his fair share of oddballs and eccentrics. But days later, in the attic, Adam makes a discovery that quickly sets him off on a whirlwind adventure. And Adam soon suspects he may not be the only one aware of his extraordinary secret when a tall man with long eyebrows and a thin mustache appears to be following his every move. … With words that are warm, witty, and wise, debut author G. Z. Schmidt has written a fantastical novel that celebrates pluck in the face of adversity, and the timelessness of human nature."
