UKC

.... is in final stages apparently. To be called "Beyond Limits". Didn't even know he was producing one. Thought I'd give a heads up to any other interested UKCers who weren't in the know.

In reply to AndrewW:

Nothing against the man (and will probably end up buying what should be quite an interesting read), but who comes with these incredibly unimaginative titles that seem to flourish these days? I suspect some editor somewhere thinks it will sound more exciting for the masses to name a book "Over the Top: The Life of Red Bull's Extreme Climber X" than taking the time to think of something subtle, let alone poetic.

Can't beat "Vertical Limit" anyway.

You've lost me there I'm afraid.

(Edit)
Oh hang on, biographie/realisation - Ceuse. Being a bit slow.
Not sure if he'd bother with this - a bit of a punter's route these days

In reply to AndrewW:

So now we know the two word cliche title. Any news on the inevitable keyword-stuffed subtitle?

Beyond Limits: how strong Steve crimped limestone matchsticks whilst everyone else took their chances on the scrittle.

In reply to PPP:

Vertical Limit is as cheap as its story though! I'll buy a third copy just in case

Blimey - I wish I'd never bothered posting.
