I've just finished A Deepness in the Sky by Vernor Vinge. It was amazing and coincidentally my two last books where children of time(1 and 2) and (as to not spoil the reveal) a certain book involving spiders/crabs that live in high pressure environment.

I'm thoroughly enjoying the theme I have going on even if it was purely accidental, what would be some good recommendations involving sentient spider to pursue next?

Mission of Gravity by Hal Clement has sentient centipede-like aliens. A very good book even 70 years later.

Centipede-like seems quite novel, definitely added to my list.
