What a nice story! Post apocalypse but make it hopeful. It had me crying on a plane.

History wise--interesting and enlightening; story wise--kind of boring.

This book gave me very ‘The Last of Us‘ vibes and I can‘t help but wonder if the author was inspired by that story. Beautifully written, dystopian, sad. Two best friends on a hunting trip make their way back to a different world. A world on fire, with bodies in the water, bridges blown up, guns on rapid fire, flags torn but flying. This world created by the author feels like it‘s getting closer to us by the day.
This has to be one of the best historical fiction I‘ve ever read. My heart is so broken for all of the people who didn‘t survive the horrific tragedy of the Hitler and the Nazis occupied Germany. I have so much respect for those who found trust, life and hope in the darkness of the forest and went on to survive. 5🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

⭐️⭐️⭐️ In the 1996 Everest disaster, Dr Beck Weathers was discovered so near death, it was not wise to risk more lives for a fruitless rescue attempt. Hours later, he miraculously arrived at camp. These are the details he recalls. It‘s an incredible story of perseverance, and a bold, selfless rescue. It‘s also very much about his flailing marriage and the part mountaineering played in his often being an absent father / husband.
