If I could step into the shoes of anyone in the Curse of the Spider King, I’d choose Tommy. There aren’t many good options, but Tommy seems like the least worst pick. The reason he’s the least worst is because he’s given a book that instead of reading it, you get to watch the story that it’s telling just by touching the print of each page. The page he chooses to read turns out to be the worst of them all. I’d see the condensed version of the history of Berinfell and the Gwar’s gruesome raid on the elves. I’d also see spiders as big as trees walk by and attack the walls of the elves’ castle.
“Again, the entire environment in his room changed as a living world surged up from the pages of the book.”
