Book Reviews of Touching the Void: The True Story of One Man's Miraculous Survival
Book Review: An Incredible Story
Summary: 5 Stars
If you liked "Into Thin Air," then you will love this book, which is just as brilliant and perhaps even more incredible. If you've been to Peru, even better. Great writing, great story, and an unforgettable tale. Again, a rare book that once begun, is almost impossible to put down. Simpson has written some others, but none as good as his first. Read it. And try his "This Game of Ghosts" if you want more.
