Now we have an actual fallen "angel" immortal Devil/God, ghosts and souls. Deeper just tosses all of that out the window. There was a little bit (maybe?) of magic-ish stuff happening, but for the most part, it was grounded in the real world. The majority of the book tried to make logical leaps for how people would build religions and myths around the unknown in the deep. The best thing about the Descent was how the newly discovered underworld provided the basis for all of our hell, devil and demon myths. I don't know if this was a cash grab or the author had a contract to fulfill, but it took everything that was great about the Descent and took a big, steaming crap on it. I really enjoyed the first book and was looking forward to the sequel for years, but this was just awful. At once a love story, the ultimate thriller, and an extreme adventure, "Deeper" will leave you breathless. Mesmerizing and concussive, this darkly brilliant work of imagination galvanizes Jeff Long's reputation as a prodigious talent.
Man and his pitiless enemies are mere pawns in the greatest escape ever devised.
The real Satan can't be killed, and he has been waiting since the beginning of time to gain his freedom. But a lone explorer, the linguist Ali von Schade, learns that a far greater menace lies in the unexplored heart of the planet. Against the backdrop of a looming war with China, a crusade of volunteers races to find the vestiges of a lost race. Hell boils up through America's subways and basements to take its revenge and steal our children. Now "Deeper" arrives to explode that complacency and plunge us back into the sunless abyss.
Deep beneath the Pacific Ocean, a doomed science expedition killed the subterraneans' fabled leader, and suddenly it seemed that evil was dead and all was right with the world again. After millennia of suffering terror and predation, humanity's armies descended to destroy the ancient hordes. In an intense and imaginative tour de force, "New York Times" bestselling author Jeff Long takes readers into the depths of the earth where a primordial intelligence waits in the darkness.Ī decade has passed since doomed explorers unveiled a nightmare of tunnels and rivers honeycombing the earth's depths. It is a real, geological, historical place beneath our very feet.
