51. Spider World 6: Shadowlands, by Colin Wilson.

Final book in the Spider World series.

Niall is off to meet the Magician, and makes a dangerous journey alone through the wilderness. Along the way he meets various other creatures, gains various insights into the world around him, and correctly interprets everything he sees.

This book helped me figure out what's annoyed me with this series. Nothing Niall does is wrong. He never gets badly hurt, never makes a wrong guess, and always spots bad trouble before walking into it. There was no sense of suspense with this book, because I was sure that everything would turn out just fine, and it did. I was not surprised. It's an ok read, but it gets frustrating very fast.
