I liked that in the end the boy does not go to the top of the mountain but instead stays with the guide that was injured. I think that was very kind of him, and it was almost kind of difficult to support his decision even though it was so thoughtful of the other person. ( ) This is my all-time FAVORITE novel ever, even though it's more MG than YA and I mainly read YA. It has every element a winner could want, between tension characters you really care about, and inspiration and satisfying ending. I've read it more times than I can count and it holds a place of honor on my bookshelf. This is an inspirational adventure story and the basis for the film, Third Man on the Mountain. Rudi Matt has a dream - A dream to touch the sky.” Without the support of his family, and only determination, sixteen year old Rudi Matt wanted to climb the only unconquered peak in the Swiss Alps called the Citadel. This was also his father’s dream; but his father, Josef Matt, died while climbing the Citadel. Because of this both his mother and uncle forbid him to climb the mountain because they thought they would lose him like his father. Rudi has strong determination to make his dream come true. He sets an inspiring example to other children to follow their dream. For example, in Chapter 6 - ‘Master and Pupil’, Rudi undergoes tough training to make him capable to climb mountains. This shows that he is determined and anxious to climb the Citadel. The plot contains surprises which made it more interesting when, as a young reader, I first read this exciting story. The result is a riveting tale that keeps you on edge until the climax. Read it and find out. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
