Death Zone by Matt Dickinson
The desperate attempts of teams on the southern side of the mountain, fatal errors that led to the deaths of three Indian climbers on the North Ridge and the moving story of Rob Hall, the New Zealand guide who stayed with his stricken client, and paid with his life.
Dickinson's book reads like a thriller, pacy and exciting, [..] a real page turner * The Guardian *
A gripping account of filming - and surviving - in the death zone * Mail on Sunday *
Takes off like an F-16...After the first chapter I was starving for more and had trouble putting the book down * Wanderlust *
