    Everything Is Possible , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 257min
    Have you ever wanted to do something people told you was impossible? Then this book is for you. After growing up on a diet of Michael Palin's TV travels, Martyn Sibley realized there was more out there than the flat fields of Cambridge, England. With the help of a ragged band of PA's, a wheelchair charger, and a dangerous amount of determination, Martyn set off on a series of travel adventures that took him from the warm waters of Mexico to the snowy peaks of Catalonia. This is the story of the scrapes, skirmishes, and silly situations that one man and his wheelchair can get into, given a little self-belief and a whole lot of planning. Proving that despite the doubters, everything really is possible. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Martyn Sibley.

    The Way of the the 88 Temples
    The Henro Michi is the oldest and most famous pilgrimage route in Japan, and it consists of a circuit of eighty-eight temples around the perimeter of Shikoku, the smallest of Japan's four main islands. Every henro, or pilgrim, is said to follow in the footsteps of Kobo Daishi, the ninth-century ascetic who founded the Shingon sect of Buddhism. Robert Sibley walked this 1,400-kilometer route (roughly 870 miles) in a little more than two months, visiting the sacred sites and performing the rituals. As he had discovered on his pilgrimage along the Camino de Santiago in Spain, what began as a way to escape the confines of everyday life became a journey of surprising absorption in the emotional, psychological, and spiritual dimensions of the pilgrimage. Sibley writes of the panorama of sea, sky, and landscape along the route but also of the intimacy of gardens and courtyards, hot springs and waterfalls, where he spent solitary and quiet interludes. As a gaijin, or foreigner, he never saw another non-Japanese pilgrim on the trail during his entire trek. What is of particular interest in this account of his Shikoku pilgrimage are the Japanese people he met on the way, especially those who became his closest companions and his most ardent teachers of the language and the culture. Their own stories unfold as the author narrates his experiences, and the memories they leave behind have a lasting effect.

    Tales from the Perilous Realm: Four BBC Radio 4 Full-Cast Dramatisations, Hörbuch, Digital, 288min
    Four BBC radio dramatisations starring Michael Hordern as Tolkien - plus a special archive compilation exploring Tolkien's life and work. The tales in this collection all reflect an aspect of what Tolkien himself called 'the perilous realm of Faerie'. Adapted for radio by Brian Sibley, co-writer of the acclaimed BBC radio production of The Lord of the Rings, they are rich in myth, magic and adventure. Among the supporting cast are Brian Blessed, Nigel Planer, Sorcha Cusack, Paul Copley and James Grout. In 'Farmer Giles of Ham', having accidentally shot a giant, Farmer Giles' brave reputation is tested by Chrysophylax the dragon. In 'Smith of Wootton Major', a young boy eats a piece of cake containing a silver star, and is granted access to the magical land of Fäerie. 'Leaf by Niggle' is a thought-provoking allegory of the creative process, and 'The Adventures of Tom Bombadil' features Tom and the Hobbits in scenes from The Lord of the Rings which were not included in the BBC Radio 4 dramatisation. Also included is 'J R R Tolkien: An Audio Portrait', in which Brian Sibley draws together interviews from radio and television programmes featuring the author himself, his original publisher Rayner Unwin, his biographer Humphrey Carpenter and many others, to relate the story of both Tolkien the man and the worlds he created.

    The Temptation of Forgiveness: Commissario Brunetti, Book 27 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 511min
    Random House presents the audiobook edition of The Temptation of Forgiveness by Donna Leon, read by David Sibley.  When important information is leaked from inside the Venetian Questura, Commissario Guido Brunetti is entrusted with the task of uncovering which of his colleagues is responsible. But before Brunetti can begin his investigation, he is surprised by the appearance in his office of a friend of his wife's, who is fearful that her son is using drugs. A few weeks later, Tullio Gasparini, the woman's husband, is found unconscious with a serious head injury at the foot of a bridge, and Brunetti is drawn to pursue a possible connection to the boy’s behaviour. But the truth is not straightforward. Following various contradictory leads, Brunetti navigates his way through a world of mysterious informants, underground deals and secret longstanding scam networks, all the while growing ever more impressed by the intuition of his fellow Commissario, Claudia Griffoni, and by the endless resourcefulness of Signorina Elettra, Vice-Questore Patta’s secretary and gatekeeper. With Gasparini’s condition showing no signs of improvement and his investigations leading nowhere, Brunetti is steadied by the embrace of his own family and by his passion for the classics. He turns to Sophocles’ Antigone in an attempt to understand the true purpose of justice, and, in its light, he is forced to consider the terrible consequences to which the actions of a tender heart can lead. ungekürzt.
