Very funny, which is typical of John Long who is probably my favorite rock climbing author.

Instructional and entertaining but the writing is quite cheesy!Guess John Long was just trying to lighten the mood on an otherwise very serious topic.

It was a fun read at first. About half way through I lost interest and didn't finish the book.
