The Descent by Jeff Long

2.0

This book is everywhere both literally and figuratively. Uneven writing and characterization. Lots of telling not showing. Frequent ham handed scenes to include something from a plot outline without giving any motivation for characters to act that way. Despite a few glimmers of interesting ideas, this book is a hot mess. It’s a shame since a firm editorial hand could have removed about 200 pages a of cruft and saved this novel.
