Also, considering the spider is molten lava, is it like a puddle or something, and how does one, being in a liquid state, grab hold of something?

It's very...bland. No offence of course, it isn't bad, per se, but it needs some work. You have to eliminate things you don't need. When you write, everything should have some meaning, and empty sentences should only be thrown in to point out the obvious or string together an idea. You use a number of words that aren't really needed and describe things very shallowly. These are just a few points, but they all improve as you write and read more.

Also, am I the only one who thought of minecraft when reading this? :U

unless you're making a three page book or something :U
