  On Thursday, August 28, 1947, a 30-year-old millionaire named Manuel Laureano Rodriguez—Manolete—and a Miura bull named Islero killed each other. The Death of Manolete recounts the extraordinary life and demise of this young bullfighter, from the childhood that made the Spanish boy and the sacrifice that made the man to the girl who brought him love and the acclaim that brought him incredible success. A symbol of Latin pride, valor, and chivalry, Manolete fired the Latin imagination as no one had done since El Cid. But the crowds owned him, and on one fateful afternoon in the town of Linares, he did their bidding—and an untimely death put out the brightest flame in Spain.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  From Hollywood to the Power Plant. From poverty to the spotlight. From heartbreak to hope. 
  James Yun’s journey is not just the story of a wrestler—it’s the story of a fighter. Growing up in a broken home, raised in poverty and strict religious control, James refused to let his beginnings define his ending. His dream of becoming a professional wrestler carried him from neighborhood trampolines to the WCW Power Plant, and eventually onto national television as part of WCW’s high-flying Jung Dragons. 
  But the road was never easy. He was the youngest wrestler ever signed to WCW—only to lose it all within months. He faced rejection, betrayal, and heartbreak. Yet every time life knocked him down, James got back up. From late nights at “Good Ol’ Days” to the bright lights of WCW Saturday Night, from the collapse of WCW to his second chance with WWE—this is the story of a boy who became a man chasing his destiny. 
  Yun’s Time is more than wrestling—it’s about grit, sacrifice, and the relentless belief that no matter how many times the world counts you out, you can still rise. 
  Step inside the ring with James Yun. His fight is just beginning.

  Racing Against Time is the inspiring true story of Jeff Weiss's incredible transformation in midlife. At 48 years old, out of shape and searching for new purpose, Weiss took on his first 10K-an event that would spark a profound personal evolution. What began as a simple challenge soon turned into an extraordinary journey of endurance, perseverance, and self-discovery. Within a decade, he pushed beyond perceived limits, becoming an Ironman and ultramarathoner, proving that age is no barrier to strength and ambition. 
  Kirkus calls Racing Against Time: “An engaging and reflective life journey that captures the grit, grace, and quiet triumphs of endurance sports.”  It compares Racing Against Time to one of the great running books of recent years: “The memoir’s honest reflections on physical challenges and mental resilience resonate alongside classics like Haruki Murakami’s What I Talk About When I Talk About Running, blending the physical demands of sport with introspective growth.”   
  “If you’re looking for inspiration and motivation, Racing Against Time will get you going!” 
  New York Times Bestselling Author and legendary ultramarathoner Dean Karnazes 
  “Part memoir and all inspiration, Racing Against Time has it all: family, life, midlife transformation, tragedy with triumph, and, thankfully, a whole lot of UltraRunning.  I’m stoked about another book from Jeff, and I think you will be too.”   
  Travis Macy, author of The Ultra Mindset: An Endurance Champion’s 8 Core Principles for Success in Business, Sports, and Life. 
  “Weiss’s story illustrates the power and joy of mid-life transformation.”   
  Chip Conley, bestselling author of Learning to Love Midlife and Founder, Modern Elder Academy
