Why read it?
1 author picked Tunnels as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Another overlooked book because it is targeted for children. It’s the first in a series and is darker in tone than others. The imagination of the underground world here is neat and built in such a way that lets you envision it. The plot can be a bit disjointed for younger readers, and there are some twists to keep it interesting, but overall, is a fast read.
From Kevin's list on fiction books set in underground worlds.
