Story2
In this book, Stefan Zweig traces 12 fateful events of world history in his unique artistic style: from the conquest of the Byzantine capital of Constantinople by the Turks, to the Battle of Waterloo to Sir Robert Falcon Scott's tragic South Pole expedition. The human character and sometimes simple fate are decisive historic factors that have led to dramatic and lasting changes in the past. Often short, coincidental and highly dramatic moments have the potential to change the future of mankind in a decisive manner – the so called "Great Moments of Humanity".

Explore deeper inside the dark mind of Sea Caummisar. Inspired by true events, even though some names have been changed. A blur of reality and fiction. In my experience, it wasn't the fan that became obsessed with me. I became obsessed with her. Despite this book being inspired by true events, it is still a tale of blood of gore. Listener beware: Don't let the title fool you. This is extreme horror.
