4-6Worst-Case Scenario Ultimate Adventure series.
With David Morton. In this engaging Choose-Your-Own-Adventure-style book, readers join a team climbing Everest; of the twenty-six possible endings, only one takes participants to the top. Organization is spotty; an appended "Expedition File" section, which should be read first, provides maps, gear, and safety information to help readers make informed choices (they're also encouraged to "listen to your gut"). Black-and-white illustrations and comic-style spreads add visual interest.
