You might also appreciate The Climb by Anatoli Boukreev, who features (unfavourably) in Krakauer's book. It's not as well written but it gives an alternate view of the events. At the time, there were big disputes in the climbing community about how Krakauer recounted the events (I believe, first of all, in Outside magazine). Boukreev died in the Himalayas just a year or so after the Everest disaster.
Not knocking Krakauer's book at all - it's on my bookshelf along with plenty others from him. (If you haven't already read it, try Into The Void - also made into a film.)
Other climbing book recommendations you (or anyone else) might be interested in:
K2 - Triumph and Tragedy by Jim Curran
Moments of Doubt - collection of David Roberts articles (he was one of Krakauer's mentors and an important figure in extreme climbing in Alaska)
In the Throne Room of the Mountain Gods - Galen Rowell (book about the history of climbing K2 by mountaineer possibly better known for his stunning photography)
