Description

A thrilling adventure trilogy from Gordon Korman that follows a group of young climbers to the top of Mt. Everest!

The height of danger.

Everest. The ultimate climb. The greatest of risks.

Four kids are on a quest to reach the top-and none of them are among the four anyone expected to be there when Summit Athletic started the contest to bring the youngest team of climbers to the peak. Their ascent is not easy. The weather is harsh, and the competition is even harsher.

Then the unexpected happens, and the climbing contest becomes a life-or-death rescue mission. With thinning air-and on thin ice-no one is guaranteed to survive.
