   Omdöme om The Mount Everest disaster of 1996

   Fullständigt kass. En tecknad barnbok skulle jag säga. Det var inte alls det jag hade förväntat mig. Den innehåller också rena sakfel, som t.ex. att det sydafrikanska teamet besteg toppen den 10 maj. Slösa inte pengar på detta skräp! Skulle helst inte vilja ge någon stjärna alls, men det var inte tekniskt möjligt att göra så.
