On 1 August, 2008, 18 climbers from across the world reached the summit of K2, the world's second-highest and most dangerous mountain - a peak that claims the life of one in every four climbers who attempt it. Over the course of 28 hours K2 had exacted a deadly toll: 11 lives were lost in a series of catastrophic accidents.

Over the course of three days, a Nepalese Sherpa called Pemba Gyalje, along with five other Sherpas, was at the center of a series of attempts to rescue climbers who had become trapped in the Death Zone, unable to escape its clutches and debilitated by oxygen deprivation, chronic fatigue, delirium and a terrifying hopelessness.

The tragedy became a controversy as the survivors walked from the catastrophe on the mountain into an international media storm, in which countless different stories emerged, some contradictory and many simply untrue.

Based on Pemba Gyalje's eyewitness account and drawing on a series of interviews with the survivors which were conducted for the award-winning documentary The Summit.

The Summit: How Triumph Turned to Tragedy on K2's Deadliest Days is the most comprehensive interpretation of one of modern-day mountaineering's most controversial disasters.

This was a well written and read story. It was interesting to learn about the complexities of coordinating multiple teams ascending K2, how things can go wrong, and the different reactions people have when they do.

Sad story well written and read

Exciting book and well told but I prefer American narrator. Although narrator speaks well, he can't say his "th" in English words such as the word thought.

Glad I didn’t listen to reviews regarding narration. I would have missed a gripping story and fantastic perspective of this tragedy on K2. Highly recommend.

amazing

I went and bought the physical copy of the book to read. It is really a good book and I tried several times to listen on Audible, but the narrator in my opinion did not do the best job. I’ve never had that happen before.

I tried but…..

Great book about the K2 tragedy. However, the narrator had such a heavy accent that it detracted from the story. At times I had to rewind to try and figure out what he had said. I’ve never once complained about a narrator, it was a first for me to have to grind through the reading of what is a fascinating story.

Not the Best Narrator
