Avoid: Naive and irresponsible account of an entitled Everest journey
Ant Middleton has parlayed his exceptional SBS service into a mini-franschise. Sadly, with his latest account, he’s documented an entitled, privileged and narcissistic account of a mediocre Everest journey. Even as he pushes arrogantly ahead he arranges a helicopter to land him for four days at the Irish pub at the Hotel Yeti to get sloshed for four days. The account is culturally disrespectful and essentially bad mouths anyone who may have a slightly different perspective than the man himself. For someone who didn’t want any attention at all to his Everest journey to write a book and make a documentary about it, he comes across as profoundly selfish, hopelessly naive and well, plain mean. Being an incredible door kicker, as it turns out, isn’t enough to be a good leader, make good decisions, trash talk everyone and everybody while having zero self-awareness while lecturing the test of the world. I am sure the SBS rejoiced when this guy got his red book.

Amazing.
One of the few books that I read in one sitting. Absolutely amazing for anyone who’s feeling like they’ve just lost a bit of control of their life.

Another fantastic read by Mr Middleton
Another fantastic read by Mr Middleton. Just when you get lured in to thinking ‘ another self obsessed super human’ story that has little or no bearing for the normal folk like us...Wham another important lesson in life we can ALL learn by. Well done Ant.

A powerful life-tool
This book is compelling, wise and thought-provoking. It’s in a league of its own, and Im so happy, I got it. The world would be a better place if everyone read it. Thank you Ant Middleton, I’m taking it all in.

Immersive and very well written
Loved this book, very emotive, I found myself in tears in a couple of parts as it really draws you in. It makes you question things that are holding you back from achieving things. I will take a lot from this book. Well done Ant 👏🏼

Nothing new here
This is just another story about a man lucky enough to have lived the life of his choosing with a little bit of self help thrown in, unlike the majority of men who live their lives in quiet desperation who haven't had nor will they ever have the opportunity to 'climb Everest ' and just go about the mundane day by day. Ant is a lucky man and I enjoy his programmes but read this if you like tales of climbing you won't find anything new if you're a seasoned self help reader.Live the life you have.
