In Spidersilk the novel, Mark has many dreams of the beautiful Tia. When he meets a woman named Mairis he begins to slowly notice many similarities. By the end of the book, Mark is surprised by how much Mairis favors his dream woman, Tia. It is almost as if Tia made a journey through hyperspace to be with Mark in his current dimension.

“It is a place where there are other creatures to meet, as well as other players, and three dimensions are only the beginning.”_Spidersilk the novel

Being connected to other dimensions/worlds is a big part of the Spidersilk novel. Recently, on Mars one of our rovers has uncovered an item that looks quite a bit like a coffin on this planet. This could be proof that Mars was once inhabited, or was visited by intelligent life. Some sources even claim that the coffin has an ankh clearly sculpted onto it! The fact that such similarities have been found could show we are all actually connected more than we know!

“Darn, if those—damn— technology investors didn’t take so many credits. I mean—the company is doing well right now. It’ll take time to attain the extra funds.”_Chris in Spidersilk the novel

In Chapter 2 of Spidersilk the novel, the reader is briefly introduced to Ekaa, Chris’ wife. During the brief encounter we only learn that she wants her son to be able to attend school so he doesn’t get behind in life. Soon after, Chris ends up in Mark’s world. Although Ekaa doesn’t play a large role, it still shines light on the story. The name Ekaa is actually connected to the Goddess Durga who is believed to be behind the power of creation, sustainability and destruction in the Hindi religion. This makes the name perfect for a mother looking to provide her child with everything needed to succeed. However, does this mean that Ekaa could have played a part in the battle? What do you think?

In Spidersilk the novel, the main character Mark navigates hyperspace without a problem. However, in today’s world it’s a bit harder for us to get around. In fact, NASA sent off one of its fastest spacecraft in 2010. The spacecraft was designed to make it to Pluto and….sometime this year it just might. Crazy, no?
