Book Reviews of Dark Shadows Falling
Book Review: Nowhere near as good as 'Touching The Void'
Summary: 2 Stars
This book is very well written but is not about mountaineering. It is Joe Simpson's climbing ethics in print, and a bit of a rant against people who do not share those same ethics. Whilst they may be entirely valid opinions, they do not make for a great story. It has its moments but is a bit of a let down in general. Especially as 'Touching The Void' and 'This Game of Ghosts' were so good.
