   King John, Henry III and England’s Lost Civil War by John Paul Davis

Title: King John, Henry III and England’s Lost Civil War Author: John Paul Davis Narrator: Peter Noble Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 30 minutes Release date: December 31, 2024 Genres: Europe Publisher's Summary: This sweeping history of thirteenth century England examines how the successive reigns of two very different kings established the English way of life. In 1204, the great Angevin Empire was fragmenting under King John's rule. Unable to withstand France's invasion of Normandy, John also faced difficult relations with the papacy, and rising dissent among his barons. By the time John died in 1216, the failed Magna Carta gave way to civil conflict, and more than half of the country had fallen to the dauphin of France. These troubles were then passed, along with the crown, to John's nine-year-old son, Henry III. Even with a regency government commanding the ship of state, Henry faced a dire threat to his royal authority. But the First Baron's War came to an end as Henry aligned himself with the pope and offered a revised Magna Carta. While this may have ensured short-term survival, living up to the promises of this foundational contract would create a more significant challenge—and lay the groundwork for the Second Baron's War.

   Oathbreakers: The War of Brothers That Shattered an Empire and Made Medieval Europe by David M. Perry, Matthew Gabriele

   Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/765362 (https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/765362) to listen full audiobooks. Title: Oathbreakers: The War of Brothers That Shattered an Empire and Made Medieval Europe Author: David M. Perry, Matthew Gabriele Narrator: Paul Bellantoni Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 48 minutes Release date: December 10, 2024 Genres: Europe Publisher's Summary: ''This is a serious, meticulous history that will also appeal to Game of Thrones fans, who will discover intriguing parallels between history and fiction.” — Booklist ''An enlightening portrait of the medieval mindset.” — Publishers Weekly The authors of The Bright Ages return with a real-life Game of Thrones—the story of the Carolingian Civil War, a bloody, protracted battle pitting brother against brother, father against son, that would end an empire, upend a continent, and redefine the future of Europe By the early ninth century, the Carolingian empire was at the height of its power. The Franks, led by Charlemagne, had built the largest European domain since Rome in its heyday. Though they jockeyed for power, prestige, and profit, the Frankish elites enjoyed political and cultural consensus. But just two generations later, their world was in shambles. Civil war, once an unthinkable threat, had erupted after Louis the Pious’s sons tried to overthrow him—and then placed their knives at the other’s neck. Families who had once charged into battle together now drew each other’s blood. The Carolingian Civil War would rage for years as kings fought kings, brother faced off against brother, and sons challenged fathers. Oathbreakers is the dramatic history of this brutal, turbulent time. Medieval historians David M. Perry and Matthew Gabriele illuminate what happens when a once unshakeable political and cultural order breaks down and long suppressed tensions flare into deadly violence. Drawn from rich primary sources, featuring a wide cast of characters, packed with dramatic twists and turns, this is history that rivals the greatest fictional epics—with consequences that continue to shape our own world. Oathbreakers offers lessons of what deep cracks in a once-stable social and political fabric might reveal, and the bloody consequences of disagreeing on facts and reality. The Civil War at the heart of this tale asks: who is “in” and who is “out”? And what happens when things fall apart?  Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

   The Envoy: The Epic Rescue of the Last Jews of Europe in the Desperate Closing Months of World War II by Alex Kershaw

   Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/776076 (https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/776076) to listen full audiobooks. Title: The Envoy: The Epic Rescue of the Last Jews of Europe in the Desperate Closing Months of World War II Author: Alex Kershaw Narrator: Tim Campbell Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 1 minute Release date: December 10, 2024 Genres: Europe Publisher's Summary: December 1944. Soviet and German troops fight from house to house in the shattered, corpse-strewn suburbs of Budapest. Crazed Hungarian fascists join with die-hard Nazis to slaughter Jews day and night, turning the Danube blood-red. In less than six months, thirty-eight-year-old SS Colonel Adolf Eichmann has sent over half a million Hungarians to the gas chambers in Auschwitz. Now all that prevents him from liquidating Europe's last Jewish ghetto is an unarmed Swedish diplomatic envoy named Raoul Wallenberg. The Envoy is the stirring tale of how one man made the greatest difference in the face of untold evil. The legendary Oscar Schindler saved hundreds, but Raoul Wallenberg did what no other individual or nation managed to do: He saved more than 100,000 Jewish men, women, and children from extermination. Written with Alex Kershaw's customary narrative verve, The Envoy is a fast-paced, nonfiction thriller that brings to life one of the darkest and yet most inspiring chapters of twentieth century history. It is an epic for the ages.
