Riveting read couldn't put it down
I originally bought this book in paperback form several years ago and it's been passed round a few times now.
Gripping book, you really feel for the guy and it's got to be read to be believed!
I'll be honest I enjoyed it so much I had to read it all in one go. I then went out and bought several other of his books too.
It's a book I keep coming back to every now and again and one of my top recommends to anybody who asks me what they should read.
Brilliant
A must read! Very detailed accounts gives you the insight into the feelings and desperation they went through to survive and the pure determination to live. Amazing.
A powerful story of emotions.
A thought provoking book !
Full of courage ! And sheer determination for life !
It reminded me that, no matter the danger, we should all follow our dreams and face the challenges, no matter how hard they are along the way.
