But Hell is not as the philosophers claim, its rules are upside-down, and if she's going to get out of there alive, she and Peter will have to work together.That's if they can agree on anything.
Will they triumph, or kill each other trying?

REVIEWS
Rico em ideias e influências
Diogo Magalhães
O que mais gostei em “Katabasis” foi a quantidade de referências e camadas que a Kuang vai integrando ao longo da leitura. Sente-se claramente um lado quase académico, mas sem nunca se tornar pesado de forma gratuita. Há uma componente de aprendizagem constante, seja nas ideias que explora, seja nas influências que vai deixando pelo caminho. Dei por mim várias vezes a querer perceber melhor certas referências. Não é um livro para ler de forma distraída, mas compensa exatamente por isso. Fiquei com a sensação de ter tirado mais daqui do que apenas a história.
