Spid
Web of Lies is another sequal, this time to
Spider's Bite. The main character Gin is a "retired" assassin and owner of the Pork Pit. She's also got a double dose of magical abilities able to control Stone and to a lesser extent Ice (the other elements are Fire, Air, and Lightning), though she doesn't like to rely on them too much. She's a vicious, blood-thirsty soft-hearted woman who isn't intimidated by anyone. She becomes involved in someone trying to oust the Fox family from their store when someone tries to kill a Violet Fox in her restaurant.
The attempted murder and ousting is being coordinated by third-party agents of Mab, the fire elemental who controls the crime element (and the rest) of the city. Mab also happens to be the person who orphaned Gin by murdering the rest of her family as a child. Needless to say, Gin doesn't let the chance slide by to cause some trouble for Mab along the way.
The conclusion wraps up the Fox family's situation and handily sets the stage for the next episode in the series,
Venom.
Overall Rating: 4 /5
(Spider's Bite: 4 /5 )
