The Descent by Jeff Long Book Summary

We are not alone. Some call them devils or demons. But they are real. They are down there. And they are waiting for us to find them.

In a cave in the Himalayas, a guide discovers a self-mutilated body with a warning: Satan exists. In the Kalahari Desert, a nun unearths evidence of a proto-human species and a deity called Older-than-Old. In Bosnia, something has been feeding upon the dead in a mass grave. So begins mankind’s most shocking realization: the underworld is a vast geological labyrinth populated by another race of beings.

With all of Hell's precious resources and territories to be won, a global race ensues. Nations, armies, religions, and industries rush to colonize and exploit the subterranean frontier. A scientific expedition is launched westward to explore beneath the Pacific Ocean floor, both to catalog the riches there and to learn how life could develop in the sunless abyss. But in the dark underground, as humanity falls away from them, the scientists and mercenaries find themselves prey not only to the savage creatures, but also to their own treachery, mutiny, and greed. One thing is certain: Miles inside the earth, evil is very much alive.

The Descent. After my fourth reading, still one of the most compelling books I've read. The characters are fascinating and clearly drawn, and the story is riveting. Long draws a beautiful allegory, imbuing an unknown and hostile environment with savage grace. The great cosmic questions are asked, but as with any great tale, the answers are left to us. One petty cavil: I want to know Isaac's story. He is the alpha and omega character, but we know the least about him. Is that done on purpose?

Great book!. I read this a couple of years ago, and I'm about to read it again. It made my two-timer list (which is a very short list). (update: holds up just as well on the second read. I love this book!)

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. One of the best books I’ve ever read. I’ve read it at least ten times by now. Fantastic writing. Literally couldn’t put it down.

Original and Terrifying. In a genre without meant great ideas, Long landed on a good one.

The Descent. The author seamlessly blends fable with history. He illuminates man’s tendency to usurp and control what he finds, and provides a few angels to assure that not all hope is lost. A great read!

One of the most terrifying books I've ever read. A hollow-earth adventure novel filled with gore and suspense. I finished it in one night. Best of Longs books.
