About this listen
«Detrás de cada game over, siempre hay otro play again.»
Esta es la historia de una gran amistad. Tanto Rubén (el Ruby) como Lamberto (el Roxy) son íntimos amigos de lo ajeno y tienen mucha prisa por devorarse la Ciudad de México al ritmo de The Clash. Corren los años ochenta. No hay teléfonos móviles, cámaras en las calles ni mensajes de texto. El mundo es hoy tan libre que no faltan los crápulas ansiosos de torcerlo para su provecho. Y en tal medida abunda el bandidaje que confiar en tu sombra es un riesgo que puede salir caro. Los años sabandijas atraviesa la década de punta a punta, entre todo un elenco de pícaros, beldades, matones, desnudistas, herederos, travestis, vedettes, raterillos, socialités, devotos y forajidos financieros: la fauna citadina que recorre estas páginas al modo deuna huida desenfrenada, con la avidez a cuestas y el botín en el aire. Una novela plena de adrenalina, vértigo y malandrinaje, donde el alma más pura enseña el cobre y cada nuevo día insiste en ser el menos pensado.
Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

Ser niño es entender que el que lleva al infierno es un camino corto. Se llega sin saber, se escapa sin pensar, se vuelve sin querer. El niño de esta historia se resiste a contarla. Antes que darle un sitio en su memoria, preferiría darle sepultura. Cuando menos lo espera, ya está inmerso en un juego trepidante que le permite todo... menos dejar morir una historia. Se trata de salvarla, ése es el juego. No es que la infancia sea en sí difícil, sino que sus fantasmas resultan invencibles y sus muros—horror—inexpugnables.

A sus diecisiete años Juan Guillermo se ha quedado huérfano y completamente solo. Tres años atrás, Carlos, su hermano mayor, ha sido asesinado por unos fanáticos religiosos; abatidos por el pesar, padres y su abuela mueren. En el extremo de la rabia y la desesperación, Juan Guillermo jura vengarse. El problema es que los jóvenes religiosos están muy bien organizados, gozan del respaldo de gente poderosa, portan armas, han entrenado artes marciales y, para colmo, están coludidos con Zurita, un comandante de la policía judicial.

When mystery author D. B. Ziegler is late delivering her book, Abi Schore steps in to help. Surely she can give her favorite author moral support over the holiday break and get the manuscript to her boss at Tea & Sympathy Publishing in time for the new year. When Abi shows up on Ms. Ziegler’s doorstep bearing holiday treats, she’s met by the author’s handsome grandson Dov, who reveals a startling plot twist. His grandmother isn’t able to finish the book and Dov promised he’d complete it so fans won’t be disappointed—a task that’s harder than he ever imagined.

When Heather McKinley dreamed of becoming a doctor, she imagined curing sick kids and sporting pink stethoscopes. She never anticipated the sleepless nights, grueling exams, and endless labs. And she certainly never knew that her medical school earned the nickname Dead Med thanks to the tragic history of students overdosing on illegal drugs. But Heather would never consider doing anything like that. That is, until her longtime boyfriend dumps her, she finds herself failing anatomy, and her world starts to crumble.

After their mother passes, three estranged siblings reunite to sort out her estate. Beth, the oldest, never left home. She stayed with her mom, caring for her until the very end. Nicole, the middle child, has been kept at arm’s length due to her ongoing battle with a serious drug addiction. Michael, the youngest, lives out of state and hasn’t been back to their small Wisconsin town since their father ran out on them seven years before.
