Historia
This wildly entertaining account of the golden age of the action movie charts Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger’s carnage-packed journey from enmity to friendship against the backdrop of Reagan’s America and the Cold War. Revealing fascinating untold stories of the colourful characters who ascended in their wake, it tells the story of how the era of the invincible action hero who used muscle, martial arts or the perfect weapon to save the day began to fade.

Bought this on a bit of whim but so glad I did. Was great fun listening to their stories and the behind the scenes of their films.

Historia
When Brian De Palma agreed to allow Julie Salamon unlimited access to the film production of Tom Wolfe's best-selling book The Bonfire of the Vanities, both director and journalist must have felt like they were on to something big. How could it lose? But instead Salamon got a front-row seat at the Hollywood disaster of the decade.

Most Casual Turning on of a Car Indicator of the Week !
Revisado: 09-13-23
The thing I love about Audible is that occasionally when you least expect you come across an absolute gem of a listen normally about something you have had little interest in before or something you down right dislike . This is up there in the top 5 Audible listens and I have over 400 titles completed so far. The narrative actually transports you there on set with all of the intermingling storylines and characters that made the film. Whilst initially I was very concerned about the author narrating it as her voice was a little ‘grating’ I forgot about it within the first hour and pretty quickly throughly enjoyed her narration, for some reason it totally matched the book. All I will say now I have competed it is, I can’t wait to watch the movie !!!!!!!

Historia
Jonathan Vaughters' story is the story of modern cycling. From his early years as a keen cyclist in his hometown in Colorado to his unflinching rite of passage as a professional rider with US Postal to his elevation as one of cycling's most resilient, ethical, and intelligent team bosses, the highs and lows of his career have mirrored those of the sport itself.

Really enjoyed this, have been a fan of Haas F1 for a while and Guenther bought the 2022 season back to life with his unique style. After a few chapters I got used to his enthusiastic efforts as an audio book narrator .

Historia
Formula One has long maintained a glitzy aura that masks dark and strange goings-on in the background. But with the 2019 season came a force louder than Formula One could dream of muffling: William Storey, the founder of British energy drink startup Rich Energy. Storey became a multimillion-dollar sponsor of the Haas Formula One team a year after records showed Rich Energy having a mere $770 in the bank. He equated his doubters to moon-landing truthers. But where were actual cans of Rich Energy, and did the supposed sponsorship funds exist?

Wasn’t sure what to expect but thoroughly enjoyed it. Found myself shouting at the car radio system over learning about the sheer narcissistic personality of the main protagonist.

Historia
On 8 March 2014, a Boeing 777 travelling from Malaysia to Beijing with 239 people onboard disappeared. Despite the most expensive and expansive search in human history, it has never been found. Was it one of the largest ever acts of mass murder, a hijacking that went wrong, or was it something less sinister like technical failure? Aviation experts have no answers. Politicians have no easy solutions. Families have no bodies to bury.

Was sad when this came to an end. Brilliantly produced, superbly researched and unbiased in its view on what they believed happened. It certainly changed my mind on certain aspects of what happened to MH370. Well done Audible on a great podcast. Hope to see more like it !

Historia
In 1991, acting on a tip from a local fisherman, two scuba divers discovered a sunken German U-boat, complete with its crew of 60 men, not too far off the New Jersey coast. The divers, realizing the momentousness of their discovery, began probing the mystery. Over the next six years, they became expert and well-traveled researchers, taught themselves German, hunted for clues in Germany, and constructed theories corrective of the history books, all in an effort to identify this sunken U-boat and its crew.

I wasn’t sure what to expect when I purchased this as it had been sitting in my wish list for a long time, and especially as I had no real interest in deep sea diving or indeed U-boats. What I got was a superb story, beautifully told and meticulously researched. Real ‘boys own adventure’ The audio quality is obviously transferred from its previous format of a tape or CD but in a perverse way I enjoyed it immensely as it reminded me of my early obsession playing audiobooks on my Walkman with cassette tapes. I was unfamiliar with the narrator but thought he did a super job. I was sorry to come to an end but will start on the next book following John Chatterton and his deep sea wreck exploring. Also, as a Christmas present to myself I have purchased a PADI diving course at my local pool and lake which I’m looking forward to immensely. I think that demonstrates the power of this book .

Historia
Mike Rinder’s parents began taking him to their local Scientology center when he was five years old. After high school, he signed a billion-year contract and was admitted into Scientology’s elite inner circle, the Sea Organization. Brought to founder L. Ron Hubbard’s yacht and promised training in Hubbard’s most advanced techniques, Rinder was instead put to work swabbing the decks. Still, Rinder bought into the doctrine that his personal comfort was secondary to the higher purpose of Hubbard’s world-saving mission.

Revisado: 10-01-22
I was very sad when this came to an end. I have held an interest in Mike Rinder ever since I saw him on the BBC Panorama series in 2007 and 2010. I followed his blog donated money and enjoyed his HBO series so I was delighted to see he was releasing his own book.
The book is superb and grabs your attention from the first pages, it was truly fascinating to hear the insight of someone who spent so long in Scientology and one who reached the top and ultimately the bottom. Mike diligently narrates well, especially for his first time. To end, I personally am having some major changes in my life, something that he given me lots of reflection, heart ache and worry. This book really helped my mindset and made me realise I don’t have it so bad, look how difficult it must have been for Mike Rinder walking out of Scientology in 2007 at the age of 52 losing everything and slowly coming to the realisation of what Scientology really was. The stress and emotions must have been damaging . This book has my highest recommendation!!!

Historia
In this gripping narrative, Ben Macintyre tackles one of the most famous prison stories in history and makes it utterly his own. During World War II, the German army used the towering Colditz Castle to hold the most defiant Allied prisoners. For four years, these prisoners of the castle tested its walls and its guards with ingenious escape attempts that would become legend. But as Macintyre shows, the story of Colditz was about much more than escape.
