Book Reviews of Everest Is Hollow
Book Review: A beautifully written, well crafted adventure tale for the child in all of us.
Summary: 5 Stars
Whoever wrote this book really knew their craft. The prose manages to be deceptively simple when describing complex scenes. The flow is easy to follow, which I'm sure comes from long hours of careful editing. I really admired the transition from near non-fiction climbing scenes to a fully imagined world inside Mount Everest. Encounters with another race inside the mountain were poignant, not mawky as they could have been. I'm really looking forward to Trouble's next adventure in Sign of the Rat, as indicated by the novel's ending. It's an incredible bonus that proceeds from the book are donated to Doctors Without Borders. But even without that fact, this novel is a great read.
Summary of Everest Is Hollow
Everest is Hollow is an adventure novel, featuring a teenage Indiana Jones-style archaeologist. His nickname is "Trouble." Together with his friends Nuru and Tattoo, Trouble climbs Mount Everest's difficult West Ridge. Fierce weather and snow leopards add to the risk of an already challenging expedition. Their risks multiply when Trouble enters a cave and realizes Everest is hollow. Inside the world's tallest mountain, he discovers an abandoned city, the key to a lost civilization built on treasures of the past. How it was done is a mystery. The only clue is a strange creature, the last of his species.Action & Adventure Books
