Amazing book

Thank you - great narrative and story is truly remarkable. Magical, mysterious and fascinating.
Highly recommended - it will open your mind.

Captivating!

This was a wonderful narrative of the adventure of a lifetime. The first woman to traverse the wilds of Tibet whilst it was closed to foreigners. Beautifully narrated with animation and precision. A lovely journey that helps you feel as if you’re experiencing the highs and lows right next to the writer.

Disappointing!

The paperback version of this book has been one of my all time favorite reads! I really expected to enjoy this audible version, but the narrator’s tonal effects and pace override the content.
After two hours of trying to listen, I’m unable to finish this version of the book due to the mismatch of narration to the content.
