About this listen
“Adventure,” L. Ron Hubbard said, “I well know, is in the heart, not in the view.” In his stories, which were uniquely drawn from true-to-life experiences, including then-rare voyages to Asia and the South Pacific, he adventured grandly, carrying readers into the cold, storm-swept sea, or the heat of a vast desert or the wild currents of the air. A member of the famed Explorers Club, Mr. Hubbard delivered in these stories a sharp jolt of reality with a healthy dose of pulse-pounding bold adventure.
This 5-audiobook collection includes 7 short stories for 10 hours of immersive entertainment. All audiobooks are unabridged, full-cast productions with cinematic quality sound effects that bring the stories and characters to vivid life.
Titles and short stories in the Action Adventure Short Stories Collection Vol 3 include: The Red Dragon, Twenty Fathoms Down, The Headhunters, Sea Fangs, and Yukon Madness (with: “The Cossack” and “The Small Boss of Nunaloha”).
You will love this collection because, as Clive Cussler describes Mr. Hubbard’s writing, they are “written in the great style adventures should be written in.” And George Clayton Johnson, (author of Logan’s Run) calls it “On a par with Jack London, Edgar Rice Burroughs, and Dashiell Hammett.”
Book Descriptions:
The Red Dragon: Michael Stuart is a soldier of fortune in war-torn China and a man of honor in a world of treachery. Now, in a race against time and a Japanese super-spy, he’s in pursuit of the mystery, power, and treasure contained in a mysterious black chest … and the love of a beautiful woman. Performed by: R.F. Daley (narrator), Bob Caso, John Mariano, Erika Christensen, and Jim Meskimen.
Twenty Fathoms Down: Diver Hawk Ridley battles a rival salvage crew that will stop at nothing to steal the unimaginable wealth he’s found in the depths of the Caribbean Sea. A rollicking adventure, complicated only by a beautiful stowaway. Performed by: R.F. Daley (narrator), Jim Meskimen, Keli Daniels, Matt Scott, and Tait Ruppert.
The Headhunters: Tom Christian embarks on a perilous jungle journey for gold that has already cost the life of his partner. And waiting for him deep in the Solomon Islands is the man responsible for his partner’s murder, who wants to trap Christian and grab the treasure for himself. Performed by: R.F. Daley (narrator), Brooke Bloom, Jim Meskimen, Thomas Silcott, Max Williams, and Fred Tatasciore.
Sea Fangs: Bob Sherman signs on the crew of the yacht Bonito with hopes of revenge. And he’ll need every ounce of his strength to overcome the forces arrayed against him now—hurricanes, corruption, pirates … and the man who stole everything he valued in life. But as he’s about to discover, there’s one force more powerful and dangerous than the sea itself … the force of a beautiful woman’s love. Performed by: R.F. Daley (narrator), Gino Montesinos, Shane Johnson, Jim Meskimen, Kristen Proctor, and Phil Proctor.
Yukon Madness: Canadian Mountie Tommy McKenna sets off on the trail of a brutal madman and his pack of bloodthirsty wolves across the frozen wilderness of the Yukon. But first he must contend with the exotic and deceptive young woman, Kaja. Performed by: R.F. Daley (narrator), Jason Faunt, James King, Christina Huntington, Max Williams, Enn Reitel, Keli Daniels, and Rick Pasqualone.

Story
Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

Story
Who is Audrey Hoedemaker? It's a question her sister Maureen has heard more times than she can count, and she doesn't know what the short answer would be. Little sister, troubled teen, backpacker, musical theatre coach, con artist, childcare worker. Murderer. A tragic, traumatic childhood casts a long shadow on the Hoedemaker sisters. Maureen has worked hard to move beyond the violence of the past and build a good, honest life for herself. Audrey, however, just can't seem to do the same, careening from one state of chaos to another.

Story
Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

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.
