The year is 1924 and the race to summit the world's highest mountain has been brought to a terrified pause by the shocking disappearance of George Mallory and Sandy Irvine, high on the shoulder of Mt. Everest. By the following year, three climbers - a British poet and veteran of the Great War, a young French Chamonix guide, and an idealistic young American - find a way to take their shot at the top.

Good, but long
Revisado: 01-25-17
People usually critiques this book for being too long before the actual story begins, I can understand that, I lost track a few times in all the planning, but most of the time I found it interesting hearing about all the different gear and techniques used when climbing in the nineteen twenties. The story in general is quite exciting.
The narrator Kevin T. Collins does a great job here, managing to differentiate the voices even if it is an Englishman with a slight German accent, or if it is a Frenchman talking English. Full score for him.
