I didn't want this story to end!

This story pulls you in and makes you want more! In a different world with creepy spiders that are way too big... How can one person make a difference to save mankind? Sasha shows what she can do, but I'm not sure its what anyone would expect.

Spiders slayer takes place in a post-apocalyptic world where humanity has almost entirely been eradicated by giant, man-eating spiders. My favorite thing about this short story where the environments I felt like I was really there after reading the author’s descriptions. I was legitimately scared after some of the peril, and that marks a very well written scene. As someone who works with animals, I see both the scary and the cute side of almost any domesticated species you can think of, and I love how both sides were portrayed the story. The ending was left open to interpretation, however, I believe that the main character and her new friend went on to live a happy full life together. Overall, I recommend this one to fans of post apocalyptic dystopian stories.
