Von der hinteren Coverseite

For Russell Fralick, there were never enough adventures, never enough challenges, never enough dangers. His ambition drove him to seek the next big thrill in hanging hundreds of feet off the ground in his native United Kingdom and countries around the world. He was consumed with climbing the highest mountains and most daunting rock faces, with the ultimate goal of becoming the best.
And then it happened. In the wet darkness of a climb gone awry, he came face-to-face with death. Suddenly this man who had been running from questions of faith and immortality as fast as he could climb the next mountain was confronted with not just the end of his climbing career but the end of life itself.
In Over the Top, Russell Fralick pulls you up the highlands with him to experience all of the adventure, heart-pounding excitement, and absolute terror that come with extreme climbing. Join him as he scales glaciers and mountains in search of meaning that goes beyond the next big rush.
