This audiobook is designed for native English speakers learning Italian at an intermediate level (approximately CEFR B1–B2) who want to improve comprehension, expand vocabulary, and build confidence through structured listening rather than isolated drills. The content is built around short, self-contained stories that present Italian in realistic, meaningful contexts. The collection features modern, everyday narratives set in familiar situations such as cafés, workplaces, apartment buildings, public transport, medical visits, and social interactions.

From his tiny room at Hampton Court, the royal chronicler records the comings and goings of the King of England, his six Queens—and his six mothers-in-law. Introducing us to these redoubtable ladies, he relates the surprising part they played in the destiny of Henry VIII and his unfortunate wives. We meet Catherine of Aragon's duenna, Dona Elvira; Lady Boleyn, whose gentleman admirer threatens danger for her daughter Anne; and Lady Margaret, whose attempt to overturn hundreds of years of tradition leads to a dramatic confrontation.

In the midst of a vast gas nebula lies a remote watch-station, hanging silently against a tapestry of dying stars. It sits alone, patiently awaiting lost travellers adrift in the freezing vastness of the void.

To Captain Arq and her crew, it is one thing - refuge. But things are never so simple.
