Just when you thought it couldn't get any deeper, darker, or weirder...
The Styx have surfaced, and they're infesting London like a plague of cockroaches—literally. The evil, repressive race, dormant underground for more than a century, has crept into the open through cracks in the earth, and now it's ready to reveal itself as part insect by laying its larvae in human hosts to explode its population. Will's completely bugging out! Strapped into steel-toe boots and armed to the teeth with the ammo of a motley crew of weary renegades and cynical ex-soldiers, can he—blam blam splat! — squash the threat?

Total Termination of the English: The Styx and their lethal cohorts of Armagi will settle for nothing less. Not even the mighty U.S. military is strong enough to stop the assault!
Will and Elliott flee underground, down to the innards of the Earth that were first mapped in Deeper and Freefall. With the support of a small team that survived the plague that swept through New Germania, they discover a secret at the site of the three core pyramids. A secret that explains not only where the Styx came from, but the human race, too.
Can Elliott, with her mixed blood, unlock the clue before Earth itself spins out of orbit? All the many threads of the prior Tunnels books come together in this epic conclusion!
