Unlikethe expedition, his story rushes irresistibly forward. But perhaps Mr. Krakauer's greatestachievement is his evocation of the deadly storm, his ability to re-create its effects with a lucid andterrifying intimacy.' â€”Alastair Scott, The New York Times Book Review'This is a great book,among the best ever on mountaineering.Â Â Gracefully and efficiently written, carefullyresearched, and actually lived by its narrator, it shares a similar theme with another sort of book, anovel called 'The Great Gatsby.' â€”The Washington PostÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â ÂÂ Â Â Â Â 'Into Thin Air ranks among the great adventure books of all time.' â€”The Wall StreetJournalÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â ÂÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 'Krakauer is anextremely gifted storyteller as well as a relentlessly honest and even-handed journalist, the story isriveting and wonderfully complex in its own right, and Krakauer makes one excellent decision afteranother about how to tell it.... To call the book an adventure saga seems not to recognize that it isalso a deeply thoughtful and finely wrought philosophical examination of the self.' â€”ElleÂ Â Â Â ÂÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 'Hypnotic, rattling.... Time collapses as, minute by minute, Krakauerrivetingly and movingly chronicles what ensued, much of which is near agony to read.... Abrilliantly told story that won't go begging when the year's literary honors are doled out.' â€”KirkusReviewsÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 'Though it comes from the genre named for what it isn't(nonfiction), this has the feel of literature: Krakauer is Ishmael, the narrator who lives to tell thestory but is forever trapped within it.... Krakauer's reporting is steady but ferocious.Â Â The clink ofice in a glass, a poem of winter snow, will never sound the same.' â€”MirabellaÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â ÂÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 'Into Thin Air is a remarkable work of reportage and selfexamination....And no book on the 1996 disaster is likely to consider so honestly the mistakes thatkilled his colleagues.' â€”NewsdayÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â ÂÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 'A harrowing tale of the perils of high-altitude climbing, a story of bad luckand worse judgment and of heartbreaking heroism.' â€”People'In this movingly written book,Krakauer describes an experience of such bone-chilling horror as to persuade even the mostfanatical alpinists to seek sanctuary at sea level.' â€”Sports Illustrated Read more A bank of cloudswas assembling on the not-so-distant horizon, but journalist-mountaineer Jon Krakauer, standingon the summit of Mt. Everest, saw nothing that 'suggested that a murderous storm was bearingdown.' He was wrong. The storm, which claimed five lives and left countless more--including
