Summary

Tens of millions of people around the world are dead. Half of China is a nuclear wasteland. Mysterious flesh-eating spiders are marching through Los Angeles, Oslo, Delhi, Rio de Janeiro, and countless other cities.

Critics Review

It is skilfully written and entirely gripping - I think it is likely to be a best seller, and I would recommend you give it a go…

Why are humans afraid of spiders? With a multi-stranded narrative that traps you as effectively as a silken web, Skitter makes the answer all too clear. * DAILY MAIL *

Smart writing underpins the terror
in this second instalment in a continuing
series, which is sufficiently selfcontained
to be highly enjoyable even
for those who missed the first episode.

* THE MORNING STAR *
Ezekiel Boone writes with the power and pace of a Hollywood blockbuster * PARMENION BOOKS *
Brace yourself for sleepless nights * SFX *
If The Hatching was a summer blockbuster then Skitter is its tense, page turning counterpart setting the tone for a brutal, all out apocalyptic conclusion. * THE BOOK BEARD *
It is skilfully written and entirely gripping - I think it is likely to be a best seller, and I would recommend you give it a go… * Nudge Books *
Fun and pacey and full of gore. * CONCATENATION *
a thoroughly entertaining, deliciously skin-crawling horror thriller that you’ll like it with or without the spiders falling on your lap as you read it * For Winter’s Nights *
The inclusion of events and voices from around the world add to the growing suspense and excitement and, if you aren’t scared of spiders, the idea of a carnivorous swarm of eight-legged homicidal maniacs, is enough to keep you turning the pages. * The Book Beard Blog *
A rattlingly entertaining read * STARBURST *
