The 13 Lives of Captain Blue Bear

This is what Zamonien really sounds like! Walter Moers

A blue bear takes the listener into a world where fantasy and humor have gone wildly out of control. The listener experiences this acoustic adaptation just like the main character: drawn in by Dirk Bach's captivating reading, we encounter dwarf pirates, water sprites, and finches, all accompanied by sparingly but effectively used music. Dramatic soundscapes make the journey so vivid that the Dark Mountains, the Great Forest, the Eternal Tornado, Atlantis, and much more seem to come alive in our minds.

In 13 1/2 life stages, the hero battles through a fairy-tale realm where anything is possible, except for boredom. A thrilling (re)discovery of Walter Moers' first Zamonien novel.

Staged reading featuring Dirk Bach and Wolfgang Völz, the voice of the TV blue bear.
