Ok so the author likes climbing.
It felt in places that he was trying to teach how to climb.
Although the characters were interesting there is only so many different ways to climb.
It was too long and I lost interest after 50%.
DNF says it all really.

Absolutely loved this book. Being a sci-fi nut this really fitted me. The great narrative and characters made me romp through it. Anyone wanting an imaginative read, this is the one. Great stuff.

Fantastic science fiction about two extraterrestrial races in a heated battle to climb the highest summit in the galaxy. It's original, great characters.The description and detail will have you hanging on the edge of your seat. Highly original, enjoyable and exciting.
