Annapurna is a classic for a reason. The dangers they faced are insane! At some points, it got bogged down in details. Herzog shows what humans are capable of.

Annapurna is a gripping tale of human endurance. Herzog’s writing is intense, but sometimes feels a bit self-aggrandizing. The photos are a great addition. A good read overall.

A classic mountaineering story, but be warned, it’s not for the faint of heart. Herzog pulls you in. The initial climb details are amazing; however, the aftermath description could have been more detailed.

I had mixed feelings. “Annapurna” shows the extremes of human will, but Herzog’s perspective feels limited at times. Still, a powerful story of survival against all odds.
