Why read it?

1 author picked Peak as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Peak is a climbing addict in trouble with the law. But he gets to join his estranged father on an expedition to climb Mount Everest. The catch is that his dad just wants to use Peak as a promotion for his climbing company. Peak has to navigate complex relationships, all while trying not to die.

From Terry's list on featuring an adventurous journey.
