Rating: Summary: Once you start, you can't stop. Review: Willis has selected well-written and exhilarating stories and assembled them in the fashion of a great short-story anthology. This book takes the reader through the entire range of human emotions, showing humans at their very best--as well as their worst. You might, at times, wonder why these people put their lives on the line, but you won't wonder why you bought this book.
Rating: Summary: I can see why they call it the Adrenaline series. Review: You should read this book if you like stories that you never know whats going to happen at the end, it really gets you thinking. If you like climbing this book is for you, its almost like it inspires you to go and be a pioneer of Everest, it has mixed stories not only concentrating on the climbers but the well known sherpas of the Himalyas, who are are the real heroes of climbing, the stories will make you think about respect for nature, for nature's fury can suprise any of us, at any time.
