The wildly entertaining, deeply satisfying finale to Ezekiel Boone's near-apocalyptic monster-horror series.
After a long-dormant species of carnivorous spiders hatches and overruns the globe, tens of millions of people have been killed and eaten, or worse...and US president Stephanie Pilgrim has had to order nuclear strikes on major American cities, roads and infrastructure to try to give the survivors a fighting chance. She and her close advisers, along with spider expert Melanie Guyer and her team of scientists, have retreated to a US Navy aircraft carrier off the East Coast to plot their next move when a mutiny breaks out that pits military men looking for a final solution against the president and her allies, who don't think that blowing everything up is the right way to go. Pilgrim and her people escape to the one spider-free zone they're certain of, setting up a White House in Manhattan. But how can they survive with the odds so stacked against them?
    Still, they have no choice but to try...rallying the unlikeliest set of spider fighters on whom the fate of humanity rests.

      The fate of the world hangs in the balance in Boone’s explosive conclusion to his Hatching trilogy (The Hatching, Skitter), which features some of the scariest spiders in recent horror. Tactical nuclear strikes have killed many of the hell spiders, and roads and bridges have been destroyed to halt their spread, but the terror is far from over. On the USS Elsie Downs, professor Melanie Guyer feverishly works to find the secret to destroying the spider menace, with President Stephanie Pilgrim’s help. The military is helping survivalist Shotgun tweak his spider weapon, and a false prophet gathers his followers. Adding to the horror, the spiders begin hitching rides inside of people, and the queens are gathering strength. Boone supplies plenty of his trademark big-screen-ready, rip-roaring action and leavens the outright terror with humor, expertly gathering all the strands of his diabolical web together in a truly exciting showdown.
