Product Description
Fifteen years ago, from a hole in the ground in rural Washington, a tiny flying machine emerged and Charles Hoy found it. From all appearances, this small vehicle wasn't built with any existing human technology and Hoy made a fortune selling that technology to the first eager customer. Now with his fortunes dwindling and his curiosity piqued with more than a decade of questioning, Hoy has hired a team of adventurers to enter this vast, underground realm in hopes of bringing back even greater discoveries. But while the team expects the unexpected and is prepared for danger, nothing they can imagine will prepare them for The World Below.

Neat idea, but fairly mediocre August 13, 2007
Maybe it's not really fair to criticize this book, since TWB was meant to be a long series, and was hastily truncated to six episodes. It's a fun idea: an alien world is discovered beneath the earth, and a team is sent to bring back valuable technology. But the writing's uneven, it can't quite decide if it's a potboiler serial adventure or something else. None of the characters amount to much in the six episodes, and the underground universe is just barely fleshed out by the end, and the series ending feels completely dashed off.
Still, it's a quick and fun read with some exciting and clever parts, and some great drawing, especially some of the second- or third-string alien creatures.
