Drambish Chronicles #2
Spider's Gambit: A Horror Science Fantasy
Released on Wattpad Book two in the Spider Trilogy -
Silvia Black is marked for extermination by the Brothel. Her continued survival and her lust for revenge all point in the same direction-- kill them before they can kill her. Friends are hard to come by and Darith may be her only hope.
Darith Cortanis lost almost everything when he got entangled in Silvia's scheming, but with the help of his former enemy, he stands a chance of winning back what he prizes most. His wife, Marim. Held captive by the Brothel and her own mind, Marim is worth any sacrifice.
For the time being, their paths intersect. But there are other moving pieces, and goals that conflict with Silvia and Darith's desires. In a game of strategy, it pays to think about the long run.

About the author
Jesse Sprague
34 books50 followersHi. My name is Jesse and I’m a compulsive writer
I can’t help it. I write prolifically. I write because I must! And luckily for you, my dear reader, the stories never stop.
What do I write?
I write fantasy because the world we live in can feel like a trap.
I write sci-fi because I like to toy with worlds, universes, and cultures. I like to play god. I write horror as a kind of decadence. I mean, who doesn’t like writing that bleeds?
Regardless of what type of speculative fiction I write, you can expect that it will be dark. Whether my inspiration comes from a shiver crawling up my spine while darting across a dark parking lot, a fascination with Gothic heroines and their delightful kidnappability, or a desire to build a world to suit a spiffy MMO character, that dark undercurrent of fear makes me feel alive.
So, if you enjoy science fiction and fantasy with an eye to horror, join my readers group.
I’d love to have you along for special sneak-peeks, cover reveals, free stories, and more! Just to show how special you are to me, I’ll start you off with an exclusive short story!

Love spiders? You're going to love this book! I read it a couple of years back and just loved the series. Dark but not dark enough for this reader to turn away.
Complex characters, not your usual "likeable" ones but that shouldn't deter you from reading them.
