I have the distinct impression that Adrian Tchaikovsky doesn't like Donald Trump.

This book has zero (0) spiders, and entirely too many Trump expies. And yes, even one is too many, but somehow we start with one and we end up with so many of them, but they're all the same one, because where there is a will there is a horrifying, horrifying way.

I feel like I might've enjoyed this book a lot better if there were more spiders and zero Donald Trumps. Oh well. At least he is defeated in the end, and thoroughly routed from the minds of the people he co-opted and took over.

There are also bees in this book. That's okay. Bees are fine.

I'm quite arachnophobic which makes it ... difficult... for me to read some of his stuff, but maybe this would be OK. Or maybe I'd be irritated by being reminded more than necessary of the existence of Trump.
