Spin is a sci-fi trilogy by Robert Charles Wilson, featuring the novels Spin, Axis, and Vortex.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The first book in the series, Spin, follows narrator Tylor Dupree and his childhood friends, twins Jason and Diane Lawton. As children they witness the strange phenomenon that alters the course of human history: the night the stars disappeared from the night sky. As they grow up, the world slowly discovers the truth: the Earth has been covered by a membrane (dubbed "The Spin") that slows down the flow of time on our planet. A lot.So much so that after about fifty years on Earth, over four billion years will pass outside. By that time the sun will expand into a red giant and destroy the planet.Trying to find out where The Spin came from, and looking for ways to survive the destruction of Earth, forms the plot of Spin. | |

Belief Makes You Stupid | |
| Spin / int_79b5677 | comment |
Belief Makes You Stupid: The twins, Jason and Diane, take two different paths in life. Jason becomes an influential genius scientist, working to decrypt the mysteries of the Spin and possibly save the world. Diane, on the other hand, turns to religion and goes off the deep end, eventually ending up in a cult in the middle of desert in Arizona, playing subservient housewife to her Perpetual Smiler Wide-Eyed Idealist husband. A husband who later lets Diane nearly die after she contracts a serious illness because he thinks the rapture will be happening soon and there's no point in getting her any sort of treatment. | |

| Spin / int_bd2812b5 | comment |
Ascend to a Higher Plane of Existence: Humanity and other races "upload" themselves to the Hypothetical network in order to survive the end of the universe. They somehow manage to make it to the multiverse layer, where many older races already live in a disembodied state. | |
