About this listen
The Neanderthals Return combines the beginnings of three separate books in the return of the Neanderthal series - The Neanderthals Are Back, The New World Neanderthals: The Rise of the Force, and The Rise of the Gang. These will ultimately be three separate books with 10 or more additional chapters in each book. Each chapter features a complete episode as in a TV series, featuring a group of Neanderthals, and each book builds on the previous book in the series.
In the first book: The Neanderthals Are Back, a paleontologist working in Germany brings back some Neanderthal DNA and works with a scientist to bring back six Neanderthals. As they grow up, they experience a number of challenges due to being different.
In The Rise of the Force, a robot factory owner learning about the first Neanderthals creates his own workforce of Neanderthals and after some detectives learn about them, they recruit a team to help them find and capture elusive criminals.
In The Rise of the Gang, a crime gang leader recruits and trains a team of Neanderthals to commit crimes and thwart the efforts of the New Neanderthals Force working with the cops.

The Blood Flag was last seen on October 18, 1944, when Heinrich Himmler displayed it proudly as he commissioned the Volkssturm, the Nazi Party's new militia created to avert the certain defeat that awaited Germany. Hitler believed the Blood Flag, Blutfahne, carried sacred powers. It held the blood of the first Nazi martyrs, those killed in the Beer Hall Putsch in Munich in 1923, when Hitler first tried to take over Germany. Several Nazis were shot and fell onto the flag, pouring their blood into the already red fabric.

War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength. George Orwell once wrote of a world where abuse of power begins with an abuse of language and a bastardization of truth. Some of today's most exciting voices in speculative fiction explore the ramifications of those ideas in Ignorance Is Strength.

As a cassandra sangue, or blood prophet, Meg Corbyn can see the future when her skin is cut - a gift that feels more like a curse.

But when she escapes, the only safe place Meg can hide is at the Lakeside Courtyard - a business district operated by the Others. Shape-shifter Simon Wolfgard is reluctant to hire the stranger who inquires about the Human Liaison job.

With nowhere else to go, the Kid takes up residence under a south Florida causeway, in a makeshift encampment with other convicted sex offenders.

Now, she's heading up a major manhunt for a potential serial killer who's working his way inward from the outskirts of the city.
