Title: Disappointing
Review: This books tells the story of three separate mountain climbing rescues. While the subjet matter itself if very exciting and interesting, the style of writing served to make these stories almost boring, if that is possible. In light of the absolutely fabulous books "The Climb" and "Into Thin Air," both about the 1996 Mt. Everest tragedy, this book is a huge disappointment and completely pales in comparison. Don't waste your money on this one. The only reason I give it a "4" out of 10 is because the stories themselves are compelling . Unfortunately, the writing gets in the way. Also, there are factual inconsistencies in the book which any reader can spot, and any editor should have caught.
Is the review positive or negative?
