who dies in the book into thin air
Into Thin Air Krakauer describes the events leading up to his eventual decision to participate in an Everest expedition in May 1996, despite having mostly given up mountain-climbing years before. The 1996 expedition season recorded 8 deaths, including that of Krakauer's guide Andy Harris. This was the third-highest recorded number of deaths on the mountain in a single day, the April 2015 Nepal earthquake having caused the most at (at least) 19.
The Book of Dust The second book, The Secret Commonwealth, begins with Lyra as a 20-year-old undergraduate[19][18] and involves her journeying to the Far East via the Levant.[20] No publication date has been officially announced,[17] but at the launch of La Belle Sauvage, Pullman announced that it was complete[18] and has said that he hopes it will be out a year after La Belle Sauvage.[21] As of September 2017, work on the third book had not commenced.[20]
