    The Master of the World, Hörbuch, Digital, 298min

It can travel at the (then) unheard of speed of 150 miles per hour on land and at more than 200 mph when flying... The Master of the World is a "black novel," packed with foreboding and fear of the rise of oppressors and totalitarianism. A captivating read! Language: English. Narrator: Tomas Riley.
