Straight from Canada, by airmail, a parcel with an unusual content reached our editorial office.

From the first pages we set off on a wonderful journey with Jill, and who wouldn’t want to be carried away on an adventure in the company of one of the pioneers of cave diving and exploration? The author reveals to us fragments of her life, those known and those previously kept secret. Together we participate in subsequent expeditions into the depths of our extraordinary planet.

However, “Into The Planet” is not just about glamour and a path strewn with roses. We get a full cross-section of the glitters and shadows associated with being a pioneer who wants to pursue her passions and dreams. Jill Heinerth shares everything in a very open way. Even the difficult things. She makes us aware of how many hard decisions she had to make and what she sacrificed in order to take the first steps on her chosen life path, wanting to enter the not so numerous group of explorers of flooded caves.

What accompanies us on every single page of the book is the author’s passion. Enormous, almost limitless, and burning with a fire that nothing seems to be able to extinguish. It is precisely by something like this that you can recognise true dreamers, who have had the courage and found a way to set out to make their dreams come true and dedicate their lives to them.
