Review: I really like a good extreme sport/survival story and when TLC Tours asked if I was interested in the young reader's edition of this one I jumped at the chance. If you put your heart and soul into something, anything is possible if you stay focused ,determined ,are ready to invest in all your energy , whilst blocking all the negativity around . For me, reading about these climbs is a much better way to experience them than to plan a trip myself, but young readers hungry for adventure will look at Purja's experiences and envision themselves in his hiking boots.
