Mark opened his eyes immediately to a sunlit room. So these were not the odd “voices” that were trying to steal from him then. He’d have to keep looking. Even though it was merely a dream, Mark thought it had really smooth effects.- Spidersilk the novel

In Spidersilk the novel, the main character, Mark, experiences a lot when he’s asleep. Although many would disregard his adventures, romance and battles as mere dreams others would consider it travel to another dimension. In fact, even in our reality, people sometimes consider their dreams to be real. Occasionally they’ll predict something that happens, or a dream will lead them to take on a new challenge or advise them to let something go. This certainly suggests that when we sleep we’re able to visit a new dimension, even if we don’t always remember it.

“Mark swiftly focused his eyes, which became so hot that they emitted a thick luminous forceful wave. The creature, suddenly exposed by the light, was caught off guard. It hesitated out of shock and stumbled from the wave, grasping at where it was hit.”- Spidersilk the novel

"Your auspicious event flows like a roaring flame yet runs like a well oiled machine!" - Rae Osira in Spidersilk the novel

In today’s society we thrive on coffee. From a morning brew to the treasured specialty cup, most people find a satisfaction in the taste and effect of a cup of coffee. Although Spidersilk the novel takes place in another dimension, coffee is still a major part of the book. From Mark’s love of espresso to the officer’s secretary ensuring there’s a cup of Starbucks on his desk, the theme of coffee is ever important.

“Ah, Olympia? Not Olympus? It is good to show creative flare. As I said, it should be a blast.” Mark smiled at small comment on the name of the place while looking Tink directly in the eye. “Well nearly all natural things in this universe are made of repeating patterns. They repeat yet slightly different. Think about it, its nature.”- Spidersilk the novel

In Spidersilk the novel, the main character Mark helps his friend fight off intruders from another dimension. These two dimensions are the more obvious in the book, but the author also adds in more. From the videogame world that sounds incredibly close to ours (Olympia, Washington and so on), to the dream realm, spider realm and other dimension Mark keys into, it’s enough to leave you baffled and feeling incredibly small. Such a vast amount of dimensions are only the beginning though. Many scientist believe there are infinite parallel universes connected to ours. Imagine, billions of “you” leading similar but different lives. Check out this video for more:
