Engaging
This was an engaging read. I would recommend for teenagers or young adults. The story shows the power of determination and perseverance. The importance of striving for one's goals and not giving up. There are a lot of conversation starters that could come from reading this story.

A Must Read!
This book is quite encouraging, easy to understand, and definitely a must read. \\nI would recommend this book for 10-25 year olds. \\nIt goes through his life while he was at school - a very determined boy - Then into his teenage years, When he joins the special SAS forces, and then finally into his \\nMt. Everest climb. I could read this book ten times and not get sick of it!
