I can appreciate a nice long book considering the price you pay these days but this particular book should have end about a hundred pages sooner and I would have felt I'd gotten my monies worth. Saved by the female yeti, fine. Meeting the family, fine. All the time spent in caves, NOT fine and could have been so much better written. Corey was called by two last names and that, along with the cave sequences, causes me to question the "facts" presented about the incident. I sincerely hope all the facts were genuine because I love history and combining it within a fictional format is genius. I have already purchased two more of books by this author and I hope they are as good as the first two thirds of this book. Oh, I also hated that Disco had to die but three people wouldn't have fit on one snowmobile. What was the purpose of his going hrough the ice? Did Jeremy submit a shorter finished novel and the publisher wanted more pages believing it would sell better perhaps? Ice sequence, gone. Disco dying, gone. Disco thinking about making a movie based on this adventure, possible? Clearly he would have been a changed man but the show must go on, right? Liked yet sicked about the baby Yeti head. Olivia got what she deserved.

It's like two people wrote this book.

All in all, an amazing book, worth the money. You will have a hard time putting it sown.
