Seit Jahrhunderten fasziniert die Geschichte des Heiligen Grals die Menschheit. Er soll der Kelch sein, aus dem Jesus beim letzten Abendmahl trank, oder das Gefäß, in dem das heilige Blut Christi gesammelt wurde. Er wurde von Rittern gesucht, von Geheimbünden gehütet, von Wissenschaftlern analysiert und von Abenteurern verfolgt. Doch trotz aller Legenden, Theorien und Spekulationen bleibt eine Frage bis heute unbeantwortet: Gibt es den Heiligen Gral wirklich – oder ist er nur eine Geschichte, die sich verselbstständigt hat? Dieses Hörbuch geht der Legende auf den Grund.

Ein jeder von uns kennt die Geschichten über Riesen wie das tapfere Schneiderlein oder Jack und die Bohnenranke. Auch in alten deutschen Sagen gibt es unzählige Geschichten über Riesen. Doch was wäre, wenn ich dir sage, dass diese Geschichten weit mehr als bloße Märchen und Sagen waren? Was, wenn ich dir sage, dass es Riesen einmal wirklich auf dieser Erde gegeben hat? Noch bis ins 20. Jahrhundert gab es nachweislich Menschen, die größer als 2,50 m waren.

Charles Hapgood's classic 1966 book on ancient maps is back. Hapgood produces concrete evidence of an advanced worldwide civilization existing many thousands of years before ancient Egypt. He has found the evidence in many beautiful maps long known to scholars, the Piri Reis Map that shows Antarctica, the Hadji Ahmed map, the Oronteus Finaeus and other amazing maps. Hapgood concluded that these maps were made from more ancient maps from the various ancient archives around the world, now lost.

The history of humanity is one of devastating, once-in-a-thousand-year events: rising seas that make land uninhabitable, decades-long droughts, civilisational collapse, epidemics like the Black Death and the Spanish Flu that reduce a city’s population by fifty percent. And yet, despite enormous destruction and very real tragedy, these catastrophes all share one common denominator: we survived. In APOCALYPSE, Lizzie Wade reframes the story of human history to show how we can learn from these apocalyptic moments, seeing them not just as violent, world-ending events but as moments of progress.
