When a traumatized mining foreman is placed under the psychiatric care of Dr. Vincent Armstrong, the doctor thinks he has started just another shift. But as the victim begins to remember what drove him temporarily insane, Armstrong’s interest becomes personal, and he makes a series of discoveries that threaten to tear apart his carefully constructed scientific view of the world, and show in horrifying clarity that his patient is anything but delusional.
As Armstrong’s world falls apart, his recovering patient learns that he has not escaped the horrors he encountered underground, and that no place on earth is truly safe from the “Tunnelers.”

This was a really fast read! An eerie tale and well written... but I'm not a writer, so read the description to see what it's about :). I would have probably knocked it down half a star, but only for leaving me wanting to know much much more about what these Tunnelers are up to now. Are there more books about these? I don't know yet, but I'd read them! :)Product details

The Tunnelers edition by Geoff Gander Mystery Thriller Suspense eBooks Reviews
Some say the Tunnelers are figments of the imagination. Others are not so sure. A good way to find out is to read Geoff Gander's book. But don't start reading it tonight. You'll not be able to put it down before dawn, and you may hear the Tunnelers beneath your floor.

"This is an interesting science fiction tale. Notes left by a psychiatrist are dismissed by the authorities and then read by the person telling the story. He completes his own investigation and concludes that what happened at the McIntire Mine is real and terrifying. Everyone who learns the truth about the creatures called by the aborigines the tunnelers, those who dig in darkness, mysteriously disappear. Geoff does a good job interspersing the medical notes with narrative that builds suspense and tension throughout the novel. If you want to find out what happens, you will need to read the novel. Review completed by Gary Peterson, author of The Old Miller Place and Return to Painter's Island."
The story's told in the format as if we're reading from the case notes of a Dr. Vincent Armstrong. There's a slow build up of tension and suspense that had me turning the pages to see where this intricate tale went next. Vincent takes on the challenge of a new patient, Michael Kirkwood, whose convoluted story of monsters and blood and death underground fascinates and intrigues him.
Vincent is pulled into Michael's wild ramblings and begins to research the native legends of the Tunnelers. But the closer he gets to the truth, the more his fear grows that not only Michael's life but that his own was in danger from these ancient monsters. This story is well told and keeps you guessing until the very end. I recommend it to anyone who loves suspense.
This is an amazing example of a literary version of "found film" horror movies. From the very first page, the book draws you in and you can't help but continue reading as details are revealed and events documented by Dr. Armstrong.
Geoff Gander does a fantastic job of delivering a suspenseful thriller without a lot of blood, gore, and violence. It really makes you wonder what else is out there in the world that we don't know about? After all... We don't know what we don't know.
I highly recommend this book. It's an engrossing read and does not disappoint!

Original review can be found on [...].
The Tunnelers is chilling without being extremely terrifying or gory. The story itself is written as if the reader is viewing Dr. Armstrong's case studies on Kirkwood. Despite being a novella, The Tunnelers weaves a chilling tale without leaving out any details. I liked that there was the implication that Kirkwood may have been insane, buy you still aren't 100 percent sure.
The novel reads smoothly until the very end. I will admit I was a little confused when the story changes from Dr. Armstrong's notes to what I assumed to be the author's point of view. Once I figured it out I think it's a neat idea-- an author turning a case study into a novel. However, it wasn't that obvious and sort of threw me for a loop at first.
I'm usually a big fan of gory horror novels and movies. I don't mean gore for the sake of gore, but gore for the sake of being absolutely terrifying. But I wasn't particularly bothered by the disappearing act of one of the main characters later on in the story. This was probably the better alternative. It definitely allowed for a more mysterious ending.
By the end of the novel I had a new appreciation for my above ground level apartment and the fact that there is some truth in the old saying what you don't know, can't kill you.
Sometimes I get the opportunity to review novels and short stories I've wondered about, like today's review of "The Tunnelers." The cover was intriguing and I liked the title, so was delighted when Solstice Publishing sent it to me to review. I can't say if "The Tunnelers" by Goeff Gander should be classified as a short story or a novel (48 pages), but I can say is it is one of the best stories I've read recently. The writing is outstanding, as is the editing. I'm picky; those things are important to me.
I can also say I was disappointed the story wasn't longer. I loved reading it; I wanted to read more. The pace was fast and the topic interesting. In fact, this story could easily be expanded to a full-length novel, and would keep readers on the edge its entire expanded length.
I haven't read anything presented from multiple first person perspectives for some time. That was refreshing. It is the Point of View I prefer. The characters were intense, and the implied activities of the "tunnelers", all frightening, were dangled before the reader like a worm before a hungry fish. The tone of the story reminded me a lot of "old school" horror movies where the monster was only glimpsed ... but the entire audience knew it was really, really nasty. Only creepy music would have made these monsters more threatening.
Okay, I won't check under my bed tonight when I go to bed, but I might be attuned to any unusual vibrations from below. Remember the movie Tremors? The tunnelers aren't worms. They are a lot smarter, equally persistent and can hunt you down wherever you live. If your house has a second story, that might be a good place to read about them.
