SPOILER ALERT!
Subterranean
After reading the Descent by Jeff Long I really had great hopes for this book but... I didn't enjoyed. It sounded good from the synopsis - a hidden world beneath the polar ice caps, and a team put together to go explore when another team goes missing - but the characters were so wooden and annoying that I fervently hoped all of them would die, violently, at the hands (well, teeth) of the T-Rex-Marsupial type creatures who live in the underground world. You had the stereotypical tough-gal single mom who brings her brat with her, the oh-so-hunky military guy she eventually beds, and the evil Arabic archetype who wants to blow everything up. I can't even bother to give more detail than that; it's not worth it. I'm surprised I even finished it. In the end I becaome thinking of the all books that are coming out that the women are the men and the men are women? I've read, he has a woman as "leader," she's the toughie, and the men are wimps who usually do nothing but think with the head that's dangling between their legs. It had too many steorotypes.A point for creativity.
