EVADING THE SHADOWS
Mythologisch-historischer Roman von Rajesh M. Iyer
India. Circa 3100 B.C. As the thirteenth year of their exile dawns, the Pandavs realise a dangerous game unfolding, with hundreds of Kaurav spies trying to hunt them down by exposing their secret identities. Kedipal, one of the Kaurav spies, has stumbled upon a clue that could spell doom for the Pandavs. Duryodhan smells blood. It means a world to him; unquestioned domination for thirteen more years. Pandavs though aren’t completely oblivious to the danger looming large.
Rajesh M. Iyer ist ein indischer Autor, der seine Bücher auf Englisch schreibt. “Rajesh Iyer’s blend of mythology and fiction is enthralling to say the least.This is a creative, imagined account of the Pandavas in exile. The story is so well written that many a time the lines between mythology and fiction become blured.” (Leser) (9 Rezensionen / 4,5 Sterne), 290 Seiten – noch gratis?

The Gods are not smiling on army doctor Gaius Petreius Ruso in his new posting in Britannia. He has vast debts, a slave girl who is much more trouble than she is worth and an overbearing hospital administrator to deal with … not to mention a serial killer stalking the local streets. Barmaids’ bodies are being washed up with the tide and no one else seems to care. It’s up to Ruso to summon all his skills to investigate, even though the breakthroughs in forensic science lie centuries in the future, and the murderer may be hunting him down too.

But the dead woman’s father is demanding justice, and he’s accusing Valens of murder.

Cork Dork
Sachbuch von Bianca Bosker
Professional journalist and amateur drinker Bianca Bosker didn’t know much about wine – until she discovered the world of elite sommeliers who dedicate their lives to the pursuit of flavour. Fascinated by their fervour and seemingly superhuman sensory powers, she set out to uncover what drove their obsession, and whether she, too, could become a ‚cork dork.‘ With boundless curiosity, humour and a healthy dose of scepticism, Bosker takes the reader inside underground tasting groups, exclusive New York City restaurants, mass-market wine factories and even a neuroscientist’s fMRI machine as she attempts to answer the most nagging question of all: what’s the big deal about wine?
