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. (

Graphic Novel Book Club Aug 2016:

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. (

While I mostly found the backstories important/enjoyable, there was a lot of repetition and almost no forward momentum on the overall story arc. (
