Description
Doctor Augustus Silk controls Comsat International, an international front for WEBNET, an organization dealing with illegal activities in technical, industrial and financial institutions worldwide. Silk, a crippled and disfigured recluse, uses the vast computer network at his disposal to manipulate human lives and destroy international finances. Ninjak and the Weaponeer Organization worked to stop Silk's schemes. Since the destruction of the Weaponeers, Silk's only obstacle has been Ninjak.
Ninjak's incredible intelligence begs for a challenge and Silk has proven to be such. These two adversaries have initiated a global game of chess, with human lives as their pawns. Silk has yet to determine Ninjak's identity, but he has vowed to see him destroyed.

“It [Egypt] has more wonders in it than any other country in the world and provides more works that defy description than any other place.”
—Herodotus (c. 484–424 B.C.)
“As they are not seen on their way down the streams, it is thought by fishermen that they never return, but waste away and die, clinging to rocks and stumps of trees for an indefinite period; a tragic feature in the scenery of the river bottoms worthy to be remembered with Shakespeare’s description of the sea-floor.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Why does philosophy use concepts and why does faith use symbols if both try to express the same ultimate? The answer, of course, is that the relation to the ultimate is not the same in each case. The philosophical relation is in principle a detached description of the basic structure in which the ultimate manifests itself. The relation of faith is in principle an involved expression of concern about the meaning of the ultimate for the faithful.”
—Paul Tillich (1886–1965)
