The First Rule of Ten , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 534min

Don't ignore intuitive tickles lest they reappear as sledgehammers. That's the first rule of Ten. Tenzing Norbu ("Ten" for short) - ex-monk and soon-to-be ex-cop - is a protagonist unique to our times. In The First Rule of Ten, the first installment in a three-book detective series, we meet this spiritual warrior who is singularly equipped, if not occasionally ill-equipped, as he takes on his first case as a private investigator in Los Angeles. Growing up in a Tibetan Monastery, Ten dreamed of becoming a modern-day Sherlock Holmes. So when he was sent to Los Angeles to teach meditation, he joined the LAPD instead. But as the Buddha says, change is inevitable; and 10 years later, everything is about to change-big-time-for Ten. One resignation from the police force, two bullet-wounds, three suspicious deaths, and a beautiful woman later, he quickly learns that whenever he breaks his first rule, mayhem follows. Set in the modern-day streets and canyons of Los Angeles, The First Rule of Ten is at turns humorous, insightful, and riveting - a gripping mystery as well as a reflective, character-driven story with intriguing life-lessons for us all. ungekürzt.

Einmal bis ans Ende der Welt. Legendäre Entdecker und ihre abenteuerlichen Geschichten

Schon seit jeher haben sich Menschen ins Unbekannte aufgemacht - auf der Suche nach einem besseren Leben, nach Reichtum, Machtgewinn oder im Namen der Wissenschaft. Doch wie sah die harte Realität aus, wenn Männer wie Leif Eriksson, Ferdinand Magellan oder Heinrich Barth die weißen Flecken auf der Landkarte erforschten? Ausgehend von lebendigen Momentaufnahmen aus dem Blickwinkel der Entdecker gibt Günther Wessel Einblick in entscheidende Wendepunkte der legendären Expeditionen. Anschaulich und ohne Vorwissen verständlich erklärt er dann die historischen Gegebenheiten. Und so merken wir: am Ende der Neuentdeckung war das Leben nicht mehr so wie vorher, egal ob für die Menschen zuhause oder in der Ferne, egal ob in der Antike oder in der Gegenwart. Diese 16 Entdecker werden porträtiert: Pytheas von Massilia (um 350 v. Chr.), Leif Eriksson (um 1000), Marco Polo (um 1280), Ibn Battuta (um 1340), Bartolomeu Diaz, Vasco da Gama und Pedro Álvares Cabral (um 1500), Christoph Kolumbus (1492), Ferdinand Magellan (um 1520), Hernán Cortés (um 1520), Francisco Pizarro (um 1530), Thaddäus Xaverius Peregrinus Haenke (um 1790), Meriwether Lewis und William Clark (1804/1805), David Livingstone und Henry Morton Stanley (um 1860), Heinrich Barth (1853), Robert Edwin Peary (1909), Edmund Hillary und Tenzing Norgay (1953), Jacques Piccard (1960)

Welcome to the real world, where superheroes live. They are no different from us - confronted with life's turmoils and challenges. Like the young performer in The Music Weaver, whose heart tugs him to leave his cushy life behind for exciting but uncertain possibilities. The mountain porter in The Determined Dreamer, who can't control his yearning for something bigger, better, and greater. The number-whiz in The Mathemagician, who outshines his teachers, even though he fails his high school exams. The aspiring pace-bowler in The Game Changer, whose talent, passion, and dedication are dismissed as an impossible dream. The US-educated engineer in The White Knight, who returns to India with stars in his eyes but lands his first job in a dusty small town in the middle of nowhere. Pandit Ravi Shankar, the sitarist who introduced Indian classical music to the world. Tenzing Norgay, the first climber to conquer Mount Everest, with Edmund Hillary. Srinivasa Ramanujan, the one-of-a-kind mathematical genius. Kapil Dev, India's greatest fast bowler and all-rounder. Dr. Verghese Kurien, father of India's milk revolution. These heroes do not share dreams or circumstances. Yet they have one thing in common. They do not look at what is and ask why. Instead, they imagine how they want things to be and ask why not?

The Third Rule of Ten , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 611min

Keep current with the truth: we're only as weak as our secrets - especially the ones we keep from ourselves. That's the Third Rule of Ten. As the go-to private detective for a bevy of high-profile clients, our beloved ex-Buddhist monk, ex-LAPD officer, Tenzing "Ten" Norbu, has finally found his stride. With his beautiful pathologist girlfriend, a healthy bank account, and a steady stream of clients, courtesy of middle-aged movie star Mac Gannon and rising political star Bets McMurtry, Ten's life is bursting with activity. But it's not all joy and happiness. The death of his father and a growing abundance of secrets - both personal and professional - leave Ten feeling an unexpected depth of sorrow and confusion. Even with the emotional turmoil, nothing can stop Ten from taking the case when McMurtry's housekeeper goes missing. The investigation leads him down a dangerous path littered with bodies, untraceable prescription drugs, and human organ trafficking. But nothing is as shocking as the realization that the mastermind behind it all is in fact a criminal who has slipped through Ten's fingers once before. The Third Rule of Ten will have you on the edge of your seat, as you learn, along with Ten, that there is a fine line between healthy privacy and unhealthy secrecy. Knowing the difference may just determine whether Ten will stop his archenemy or lose himself. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jeremy Arthur.

The Fourth Rule of Ten , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 567min

Ex-Buddhist monk, former LAPD detective, and current private investigator Tenzing "Ten" Norbu knows Bill Bohannon as many things: loving husband, devoted father, police administrator, former partner, and best friend. But then an uninvited guest from Bill's past upends the Bohannons' Fourth of July barbecue, revealing in levelheaded Bill the most unexpected behavior - behavior that awkwardly drops Ten in the middle of a crumbling marriage. Ten makes an unexpected move of his own when he agrees to pro bono work for a convicted felon. But it was dope slinger Godfrey Chambers Ten had repeatedly busted during his days on the force, not the reformed and rechristened G-Force who is now asking for Ten's help in claiming money left to him by a kind-hearted benefactor - and contested by the benefactor's self-serving family. Soon Ten's investigations lead him down the darkest corridors of the Internet and halfway around the globe to Sarajevo as he navigates the seedy worlds of human trafficking and personal regret. As his cases intertwine, Ten will rely on the wisdom of the Buddha and his own network of relationships - with super hacker Mike, outrageously idiosyncratic assistant Kim, old monastery friends Yeshe and Lopsang, Serbian cabbie and former policija Petar, and, of course, feline rock Tank - to solve the puzzle and keep free of his own tangled past. Especially when an old flame returns. The Fourth Rule of Ten, the thrilling fourth book in the Dharma Detective series, proves the only thing better than exceeding expectations is having none at all. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Edmund Hillary - A Biography: The Extraordinary Life of the Beekeeper Who Climbed Everest , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 980min

Edmund Hillary - A Biography is the story of the New Zealand beekeeper who climbed Mount Everest. A man who, against expedition orders, drove his tractor to the South Pole; a man honored around the world for his pioneering climbs, yet who collapsed on more than one occasion on a mountain, and a man who gave so much to Nepal yet lost his family to its mountains.The author Michael Gill was a close friend of Hillary for nearly 50 years, accompanying him on many expeditions and becoming heavily involved in Hillary’s aid work, building schools and hospitals in the Himalayan region. Gill was granted access to a large archive of private papers and photos that were deposited in the Auckland museum after Hillary’s death in 2008. Building on this unpublished material, as well as his extensive personal experience, Michael Gill profiles a man whose life was shaped by both triumph and tragedy.Gill describes the uncertainties of the first 33 years of Hillary’s life, during which time he served in the Royal New Zealand Air Force during the Second World War, as well as the background to the first ascent of Mount Everest in 1953, when Hillary and Tenzing Norgay became the first climbers to reach the summit - a feat that brought the pair instant worldwide fame. He reveals the loving relationship Hillary had with his wife, Louise, in part, through their touching letters to each other. Her importance to him during their 22 years of marriage only underlines the horror of her death, along with that of their youngest daughter, Belinda, in a plane crash in 1975. Hillary eventually pulled out of his subsequent depression to continue his life’s work in the Himalayas.Affectionate, but scrupulously fair, Michael Gill has gone further than anyone before to reveal the humanity of this remarkable man in Edmund Hillary - A Biography. ungekürzt.
