Description
From the back cover: "The man's name was Scott Carey. Eighteen months earlier, he had begun to shrink. He was seven inches tall when he fell into the cellar of his own house - the cellar that rapidly became a terrifying prison in which - every day - he shrank a little more. And finally the time came when the black widow spider scrambled across the floor towards him on giant spiny legs..."
