Annapurna Kindle Edition

by Mitch Wilson (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
3.4 3.4 out of 5 stars 26 ratings
See all formats and editions
Morals are flexible - especially twenty thousand feet up a mountain. Confronted with an extreme alpine environment, two men hold distinct differences in judging the steps necessary to secure success. As the men begin their ascension of the deadliest mountain in the Himalayas, conditions akin to a summer's day on Mars swiftly unravel their conquest of Annapurna. The frantic fallout from this short story's expedition will question your own tenets of ethics and consequences.

5.0 out of 5 stars A gripping tale...

I really didn't know what to expect from this short story, other than it would have something to do with mountains and possibly mountain climbers. Needless to say, I was thoroughly enthralled the entire time, much the same way the nameless climber listens attentively as the old man spins his yarn. The author's love and knowledge of mountaineering is apparent from the beginning, but make no mistake, even if you've never climbed higher than a ski hill you'll still find much to enjoy here.

This is a very mediocre story that melodramatises the climbing of a Himalayan icon with little relation to the reality of climbing one of these great peaks.

A Joseph Conrad-esque journey into madness, Wilson's escalating tale trades the heart of the jungle for the heights of the Himalayas. I was engrossed by both the lush prose and the thoroughly chilling climax.
