    The Wormwood Wind , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 339min
    This candid poetry collection is clearly the literary outpouring of a planetary citizen. A woman equally at home on the steppes of Central Asia as much as the capital cities of Europe. To my mind, a far from trivial verity once we recognize the innate femininity of her versification. Similarly to Sappho (5th Century BC), Nukenova allows everyone access into a woman's world, wherein seductive complexities of thought becomes manifest through wit and rhetoric. Admittedly, her images are often sharp - carefully elaborated for their own jovial sake. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Raushan Burkitbayeva-Nukenova.

    Genghis Khan: History’s Greatest Conquerors (Conquerors of the World, Volume 1) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 115min
    Genghis Khan was without a doubt one of the greatest conquerors of all time. He changed the course of history with his small army of horsemen as he built an empire that spread from China to Europe! Genghis Khan, the myth, the man, the legend....Major metropolises would become ghost towns upon his arrival. Grown men would shake in fear at just the mention of his name, not even wanting to speak it lest the doom he wrought come down upon them. He was referred to in hushed whispers as simply the “Scourge of God”. For the superstitiously inclined of the ancient world, the destruction and chaos Genghis Khan engendered was so thoroughly complete that they believed he must have been sent by God to punish them. For them, the Mongols riding rapidly across the steppes toward their various homelands seemed to be nothing short of the horsemen of the apocalypse. When Khan arrived, the end was near. But who was Genghis Khan? We have heard many apocalyptic and dire descriptions, but who was he really? From his days as a poor and persecuted forager of the steppes to his years as world conqueror, this audiobook follows all the twists, turns, and gallops of Genghis Khan’s life. Inside, discover: The life of Genghis KhanThe power of his horsemen army and fear it left on its trailThe lands he conquered to built his empireKhan strategies to conquer the worldThe fall of his empireHis legacyScroll back up and click the "Buy Now" button at the top right side of this page to download your audiobook now!  ungekürzt.

    The Cumans: The History of the Medieval Turkic Nomads Who Fought the Mongols and Rus’ in Eastern Europe , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 75min
    Let us begin this narration, brethren, from the old times of Vladimir to this present time of Igor, who, strengthened his mind with courage, who quickened his heart with valor and, thus imbued with martial spirit, led his valiant regiments against the Kuman land in defense of the Russian land.” (The Tale of Igor’s Campaign)Before the Mongols rode across the steppes of Asia and Eastern Europe, the Cumans were a major military and cultural force that monarchs from China to Hungary and from Russia to the Byzantine Empire faced, often losing armies and cities in the process. The Cumans were a tribe of Turkic nomads who rode the steppes looking for plunder and riches, but they rarely stayed long after they got what they wanted.From the late 9th century until the arrival of the Mongols in 1223, there was virtually nothing that could be done to stop the Cumans. Old Russian chronicles, Byzantine texts, Western European chronicles, and travel diaries of Islamic scholars all reveal that the Cumans were a threat to any kingdom in their path. Some kingdoms chose to fight the Cumans and often suffered heavy destruction, while others believed buying them off was the more reasonable course of action. The latter course often brought them into intimate contact with the most powerful kingdoms of medieval Eastern Europe before the Cumans were eventually replaced by the Mongols, with the remaining Cumans dispersing and integrating into various European and central Asian kingdoms in the 13th century. Many Cumans joined the Mongol Golden Horde and later became Muslims, while some helped found dynasties in Bulgaria, Hungary, and Romania.The Cumans came from somewhat mysterious origins before they became the western vanguard of a massive nomadic horde that grew in ferocity and effectiveness as the centuries passed, but they were far more than mindless barbarians interested in violence alone. Although violence did play a major role in early Cuman ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Colin Fluxman. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/194181/bk_acx0_194181_sample.mp3.
