Story
When Edmund Hillary first conquered Mt. Everest, Sherpa Tenzing Norgay was at his side. Indeed, for as long as Westerners have been climbing the Himalaya, Sherpas have been the unsung heroes in the background. In August 2008, when eleven climbers lost their lives on K2, the world’s most dangerous peak, two Sherpas survived. They had emerged from poverty and political turmoil to become two of the most skillful mountaineers on earth. Based on unprecedented access and interviews, Buried in the Sky reveals their astonishing story for the first time.

Story
When Ball Four was published in 1970, it created a firestorm. Bouton was called a Judas, a Benedict Arnold and a “social leper” for having violated the “sanctity of the clubhouse.” Baseball commissioner Bowie Kuhn tried to force Bouton to sign a statement saying the book wasn’t true. Ballplayers, most of whom hadn’t read it, denounced the book. It was even banned by a few libraries. Almost everyone else, however, loved Ball Four.

But what separates standout sports stars from the rest? In a paradigm-shifting new theory, acclaimed sportswriter Matt Fitzgerald identifies two key traits behind athletic success: strict self-regulation over thoughts and emotions and an unquenchable psychological need to pursue victory—even when it means enduring extreme mental and physical suffering.

This Elevated my Love for Basketball
I enjoyed listening to this audiobook, which made me love basketball more. I learned a lot about the game, including who the star of the NBA logo is. As an NBA fan, I thought I knew a lot, but not after listening to this audiobook. I love how the author tied basketball to a lesson of resiliency and role models. It was also intelligent to include famous players' daily routines, struggles, superstitions, tragedies on the court, and the WNBA. Basketball has indeed transcended boundaries. I was truly entertained and inspired by these stories. Watching NBA games in the future will have a deeper meaning for me. This audiobook is highly recommended.

Not a Basketball Fan, But Loved the Stories!
Even though I’m not very sporty, In the Game really pulled me in with its stories of resilience and passion. The audiobook is a collection of 24 short stories, each one capturing a slice of basketball history, but what really shines are the personal struggles and victories that go far beyond the court. I found myself completely absorbed, rooting for players I’d never even heard of and feeling moved by their journeys. Each story was quick and engaging, so it was easy to listen to one whenever I needed a little inspiration. There’s something special about hearing how these athletes overcame challenges—it's hard not to feel motivated! This is definitely a must-listen for anyone who loves a good underdog story, sports fan or not.

Great for a long car ride.
I listened to this over a few days with a nephew during a long car trip. And he LOVED it. Admittedly, basketball is not my thing, but even I enjoyed it. Great storytelling. And the narrator is excellent too. Good one!
