Not really a novel -
"A book of quotations" is entirely accurate title for this book, nothing more. Some are quite commical, some way over my head due to limited knowledge of some of the events the quotes were inspired by.

Another amazing true life story of perseverance and courage. The fact he is an Aussie is icing.

A good sequel -
More 'technical' and less of a journey than Dean's original book. Not that that is a bad thing. A more concise record of what goes into doing such a feat, although there are much better running &/or nutrition guides available. Still inspirational though.

Truly inspirational. Before reading this I was maxing out at 12km for a run, a month later with no further training I went to 20km for a few runs, yesterday I finished my first 55km run.
Before reading this book I was an endurance enthusiast, now I fear I am becoming a marathon dependent.

Starts out as though you'd never heard of cancer and then proceeds to re-cap the previous book.. got a bit tiring so I 'archived' it.

Left for Dead
Read this book in one sitting. Very addictive to see how it ends. Very nice to read a book with references to places I have lived and visited.
