Over the Edge: The True Story of Four American Climbers' Kidnap and Escape in the Mountains of Central Asia by Greg Child

3.0

Enjoyable-enough read. For the most part, Child pulls off the coloring in and fluffing up of what is ultimately not a very long story.

The last quarter leaves a bitter taste; while the updates and details on the longer-lasting effects of the experience on the climbers was appreciated, the self-congratulatory and often defensive writing from Child was not.
