An extroadinary thriller about the discovery of a new world miles beneath the surface of the earth and the nightmare consequences that ensue. In a remote Himalayan cave a group of New Age tourists led by a cynical American guide come across the mummified corpse of an RAF flyer. Before they can investigate the mystery all except the guide are ritually massacred. In Bosnia, an American Air Cavalry Patrol investigates a disturbance at a mass grave site and it's commander catches a fleeting glimpse of a creature straight out of a medieval morality play. We are on the verge of discovering a new frontier. And it lies beneath our feet. A global labyrinth of underground tunnels and caves, miles below the surface inhabited by immensely strong, savage devil like creatures. Hell exists.The world's armies respond to the threat and are slaughtered in the dark. From the panic comes a new resolve. Big business takes 1 look at the chasm and sees only the profits from the undiscovered mineral and oil deposits. The race for profit is matched by an intellectual investigation into the nature of the newly revealed satan. Will mankind destroy the new wilderness or will the descent destroy him?

I started reading this book and since I am the impatient sort , I sometimes skip and read the last page. I was engrossed in this book, It gave me what i personally like most in books, Interesting factual info and a feeling of creepiness. I couldnt wait to see how it wrapped up, and with great effort i didnt skip ahead.I really hate to say this because I really enjoyed the first parts, but the ending was sorta ...eh.... I wish I could say it more succinctly but thats what the ending left me with...eh... I think the author lost focus at the ending. Overall, I enjoyed the book, and the only reason i even thought the ending wasn't great is because the rest of the book was so interesting It may have set my expectations very high.
