Learn how to say the English alphabet with a British English accent! First podcast by Chris from http://www.learnbritishenglish.co.uk/

English Alphabet With A British English Accent - Podcast 1

London, 1385. A city of shadows and fear, in a kingdom ruled by the headstrong young King Richard II, haunted by the spectre of revolt. A place of poetry and prophecy, where power is bought by blood.

For John Gower, part-time poet and full-time trader in information, secrets are his currency. When close confidant, fellow poet Geoffrey Chaucer, calls in an old debt, Gower cannot refuse.

The request is simple: track down a missing book. It should be easy for a man of Gower’s talents, who knows the back-alleys of Southwark as intimately as the courts and palaces of Westminster.

But what Gower does not know is that this book has already caused one murder, and that its contents could destroy his life.

Because its words are behind the highest treason – a conspiracy to kill the king and reduce his reign to ashes…

Unfettered, edited by Shawn Speakman on Audible:
http://www.audible.com/pd/Sci-Fi-Fantasy/Unfettered-Audiobook/B00HJCEGKM?source_code=SCLGB90A0WS122613

Summary:

You define life or it defines you. In Shawn Speakman’s case, it was both. Lacking health insurance and diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma in 2011, Shawn quickly accrued a massive medical debt that he did not have the ability to pay. That’s when New York Times best-selling author Terry Brooks offered to donate a short story that Shawn could sell to help alleviate those bills - and suggested he ask the same of his other writer friends. Unfettered is the result: An anthology built in order to relieve that debt, featuring short stories by some of the best fantasy writers in the genre.

Twenty-three tales comprise this incredible collection, and as the title suggests, the writers were free to contribute whatever they wished. Here is the table of contents:

    Foreword by Patrick Rothfuss
    Introduction: On Becoming Unfettered
    Imaginary Friends by Terry Brooks
    How Old Holly Came to Be by Patrick Rothfuss
    The Old Scale Game by Tad Williams
    Game of Chance by Carrie Vaughn
    The Martyr of the Roses by Jacqueline Carey
    Mudboy by Peter V. Brett
    The Sound of Broken Absolutes by Peter Orullian
    The Coach with Big Teeth by R. A. Salvatore
    Keeper of Memory by Todd Lockwood
    Heaven in a Wild Flower by Blake Charlton
    Dogs by Daniel Abraham
    The Chapel Perilous by Kevin Hearne
    Select Mode by Mark Lawrence
    All the Girls Love Michael Stein by David Anthony Durham
    Strange Rain by Jennifer Bosworth
    Nocturne by Robert V. S. Redick
    Unbowed by Eldon Thompson
    In Favour with Their Stars by Naomi Novik
    River of Souls by Robert Jordan & Brandon Sanderson
    The Jester by Michael J. Sullivan
    The Duel by Lev Grossman
    Walker and the Shade of Allanon by Terry Brooks
    The Unfettered Knight by Shawn Speakman

    With the help of stalwart friends and these wonderful short stories, Shawn has taken the gravest of life’s hardships and created something magical. Unfettered is not only a fantastic anthology in its own right, but it’s a testament to the generosity found in the science fiction and fantasy community—proof that humanity can give beyond itself when the need arises. After all, isn’t that the driving narrative in fantasy literature?

Welcome to Love Learning English

Catherine Mayer is a journalist, a best selling author and a former president of the foreign press association in London - she accidentally co founded a political party at the Woman of the World festival in March 2015. She's watched the Woman's Equality Party grow from an idea to a vibrant political force across the UK  - she is now president. 

Gender equality is good for everyone so why are women everywhere at best second class citizens. What will it take to reach gender equality?
Catherine's new book 'Attack of the 50 ft. Women' offers a tantilising preview of a gender equal future that could be ours. It's a brilliant, original book and Catherine takes us on a journey discussing global issues and debates impacting every one of us. She talks to co founder of the Women's Equality Party and actress Tanya Moodie who happens to be the reader of the audiobook. Halla Gunnarsdóttir is also involved in today's episode - a former advisor to the Icelandic government as well as Head of partnerships and policy for the Woman's Equality Party.

Catherine Mayer: "What does gender equality look like?"
