5 issues, each devoted to the backstories of principal characters dating back to ten years up to the present action, to help us better understand what is going on. I found this volume to be highly emotional.

This is one of my all-time favorite series. Do yourself a favor and read it. ( )

Review coming soon! ( )

This was kinda strange because it was basically little background vignettes of all the main characters, so the story didn't really move forward, but what was there was great. Especially Driller (as usual).

I really like how all this is coming together. ( )

I love, love, love this book so very much. Every bit and bunch of Descender has made me happy. I love the characters and the surprises. I loved seeing faces and people I didn't expect to see at all. I love getting to learn so much from the different points of views, too. And that ending! Ah-hahahaha. I can't wait to keep reading on. ( )
