One of Dan Simmon's best. Totally spellbinding story of mountain climbing. Focused on a specific team's struggle up Mount Everest. Presents an interesting snapshot of the competitive nature of mountain climbing within Europe during 1920's, prior to WWII. Great character development captured in a plot that twists and turns up the mountain.
