Jon the Spider
Synopsis
If Jon doesn’t watch himself, he won’t be asking what’s for dinner. Instead, he’ll be asking who.
After aliens abduct him and transform him into a giant spider, this father of two has to learn quickly if he wants to survive.
He is dumped into a strange world with no guidance on returning home save the barest hints: survive, conquer, kill the false gods. His new form is far from helpless, with powerful claws, venom, and magical abilities. This magic lets him stun foes and manipulate their senses, moving him several rungs up the food chain.
Yet each time he taps into his new potential, he is possessed by intrusive instincts. Instincts to maim, to feed, to kill.
As Jon combats the impulses of his carnivorous form, he begins to question who will return home: will it be him, or the monster he has become?
