About the Author
Patsy Cameron & Tedd Anasti have written and produced over 500 half-hour episodes of such children's TV hits as Disney's Timon and Pumbaa, Duck Tales, and The Little Mermaid; the Free Willy TV series and the Emmy Award-winning Tim Burton's Beetlejuice. Married with two children, they were inspired by their son's passion for spiders to write Spider Riders.
Reviews
Grade 4-6–Thirteen-year-old Hunter Steele, who suffers from severe arachnophobia, is shocked when he accidentally falls through a tunnel to the center of the Earth and finds himself in Arachnia, a world filled with intelligent, 10-foot-long spiders. The humans who reside there live in peace with them and ride on their backs into battle against the sinister Insectors. Hunter's only hope of returning home is to become one of these Spider Riders. He quickly–and unbelievably–conquers his terror when the plot demands it and, again unbelievably, thinks of a clever plan to save the Spider Riders within a few hours of arriving. The spider he rides talks exactly the way one would expect a smart-mouthed cartoon sidekick to speak. This is a shallow, pedestrian, by-the-numbers adventure, but it is also the novelization of an animated TV series scheduled to launch before the end of this year. –Walter Minkel, New York Public Library
