'Tunnels' by Roderick Gordon and Brian Williams is a dark and mysterious tale that delves into a hidden world underground. The story is filled with brutality and violence, where people are tortured and killed, and vicious dogs attack with deadly intent. The plot unfolds slowly, with the first 170 pages lacking compelling characters, but eventually, the writing improves as the protagonists, Will and Chester, venture underground and encounter interesting characters.

Before long-before he can find his father-Will is their prisoner....
