The Spider #96 - The Spider and the Deathless One
Just finished listening to "The Spider #96 - The Spider and the Deathless One" by Norvell W. Page writing as Grant Stockbridge.
Norvell W. Page was the preeminent writer/chronicler of The Spider's adventurers and he pulls out all the stops for what appears the third and final outing of Munro, the man of a thousand faces who returns from the dead to wreck havoc on Richard Wentworth and his friends and family as he schemes to destroy and take over New York City.
Now in the interest of fair disclosure, I have written end notes for Radio Archives that are still in use and though we have never met, I am friends here on Facebook with Nick Santa Maria.
What makes this outing of The Spider particularly interesting is that it's the first time Richard Wentworth is tricked by Munro's machinations into taking the helm of the police department as the acting Commissioner of Police - effectively hog tying Wentworth's hands since he is honor bound by his oath as acting commissioner to uphold the law.
Yet despite his best efforts, Wentworth is thwarted at every turn by Munro who is always just one step ahead of him, and it soon becomes a deadly game of cat and mouse where Wentworth must outwit Munro by offering himself up as the sacrificial lamb.
A great thrilling outing of The Spider. Nick Santa Maria. does his usual bang up job with another rousing and thrilling performance.
STRONGLY RECOMMENDED!
TEN STARS!
