Around 2,000 years ago, the Maya people were raising pyramids to house their many gods and to bury their kings. This is just one of the special secrets uncovered by archaeologists in their stunning finds in parts of Central America. More than anything, the Maya left us with many questions. It’s the job of scientists and archaeologists to explain how a thriving people came to such a quick end. There are no simple answers, but we can discover so much with a shovel and brushes! Come, explore this fascinating civilization with us - and don’t forget your Indiana Jones hat!

Although her name and story might be familiar, much of what we know about Cleopatra is shrouded in mystery. Her life was one of politics, murder, war, marriage and passion – but it was also one of pride, bravery, love and strength. Cleopatra may have lived as a goddess, but, beneath her magnificent exterior, she was just a woman who fought tirelessly for what she felt was rightfully hers. With a gripping, expertly researched and fact-checked text, this is the story of the woman behind the stories.

The common view of the Romans is that they were only interested in watching gladiators hack one another to pieces, and in lying on couches while they stuffed large meals down their throats. But of course they were a busy and clever people, who built up a great empire to prove it, with fine cities and harbours, bath houses and roads, laws and good government. In this audiobook you can hear the stories of the great Roman emperors and the enduring legacy that they left for later generations.

Warum die Welt nicht friedlich ist und was passiert, wenn Fremde zusammentreffen. Was geschah, als Menschen aus fremden Gesellschaften aufeinandertrafen – haben sie stets gekämpft oder fanden sie Wege, friedlich miteinander umzugehen? Wie ist es ihnen gelungen, sich auf gemeinsame Werte, Ideale und Regeln zu einigen? Bestsellerautor Yuval Noah Harari widmet sich in seinem neuen Buch brandaktuellen Fragen, auf die auch junge Menschen eine Antwort suchen: warum es so viele Kriege gibt und wie es fremden Menschen gelingen kann, friedlich zusammenzuleben.
