After five years of monstrous slavery, spiders can barely tolerate insects side by side—at least in a world that is still free only on paper. Insects have taken over cities; spiders are driven into out-of-the-way shelves. Kaynort Britz doesn’t change his style: an exiled adventurer, a single father, and a titled aristocrat with a bipolar shoe disorder. He runs a brothel in the city center, but against common sense he hires only insects for dirty work. That’s why he’s hated by both his own and others.
Ember Lau is hiding badly and is alive only because Kaynort is looking badly. But Uriuyu faces a new catastrophe—and the insects are responsible for those they captured. Between the «Libellophobia» and «Libellomania» chronologically happen events from the duology «Iron Aspid». That’s why some changes in the lives of spiders and insects may surprise you at first glance.
