Spidertown beschreibt das wahre Leben auf der Straße besser als jedes andere Buch. Die Aussichtslosigkeit der Kinder die in den Slums von Lateinamerika aufwachsen ist erdrückend, ein Abrutschen ins Kriminäle Milieu und in den Drogensumpf eine logische Schlussfolgerung. Rodriguez vermittelt die schlimmen Seiten eines derartigen Lebens, allerdings nutzt er die Liebesgeschichte zwischen Miguel und Christalena zum Anlass dem Leser zu zeigen, dass es immer Hoffnung im Leben gibt, und man niemals aufgeben sollte.
