Summary and Point of View of "Peak"

While reading the book Peak by Roland Smith, I have read so far about a 14 year-old boy named Peak Marcello. He has been charged with multiple crimes. While in the court room, the judge decides to let Peak go under one condition, he must go with his father out of the country to Tibet. In my opinion I would not recommend this book to anyone because its a little too hard to read and understand it correctly. The book is also very predictable so I new a little of what was going to happen.


Peak, a fourteen year-old boy raised by his mother and step-father. He is the main character in this story. Something that Peak learns throughout the story is "The only thing that you'll find on the summit of mount Everest is a divine view. The things that really matter lie far below." Peak is a laid-back character that is overwhelmed by his surroundings. He gains wisdom as the book progresses and realizes the things that really mean something.
