engaging, interesting, frightening
What other book might you compare Everest 1953 to, and why?
it's an adventure book, which really held my interest, despite my knowing the outcome. it included loads of details which didn't hinder the telling of the story at all. i also found myself becoming really involved with the story and wondering how the mountaineers held their nerve.
What does Barnaby Edwards bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
he kept my interest - he included a few varied accents, etc., but generally played a straightforward game. really good.
If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
(like the book): epic
