Forget everything you know about reality. The quantum world doesn't play by those rules.

Daniel Rice is a government science investigator whose specialty is solving seemingly intractable problems through scientific inquiry.

But Daniel's intellectual strength is sorely tested by the bizarre realities he finds in the quantum world. Extra dimensions of space trap the unwary, probability replaces cause and effect, and time isn't what anyone imagined. The other side of the mirror is a place full of dangers, but it's also somewhere a dedicated scientist can uncover secrets that connect humans with something greater.

The first book was a great read and original but the second and third were like bad movie sequels that feel like they were written by someone else. The dialog and situations in the second and third were like a bad network TV series. The dialog was just corny and although they had a lot of interesting science I couldn't even finish the third book.

Great first book.. it should have ended there

really well written, great story, accessible explanations of hard science, and is a near future sci fi that touches the far future. its fun, it makes you think, its not superficial or vapid, and runs a good balance between the fanciful and the potentials in fiction.

i loved it

There was so much excellent sci-fi in the past and it’s been hard to find good stuff more recently authored. This is a refreshing change from that. Great authorship and totally worth reading!

Application of more recent science. Refreshing.

Terraforming, could have easily been implemented. Love the series though.
Oh and 3 more words

A missed opportunity.

I was looking for a long space yarn and I got it. Book 3 was a hard start for me, but I hung in there as I enjoyed the characters so much.

The author blends science fact into fiction well enough that you don't immediately know whether a concept is real or not.

Yes, there is a bit of romance woven in. And that helps add more dimensions to the characters.

Creative fans will note plenty of room left in this Quantum world for additional episodes. And I'll be making time to read the. yes, you can groan at my cheesy pun now.

Time Well Spent!

Really loved it & I have heard probably 100+ mostly military SF, which this is not. A lot of physics theory & wishful physics. Very creative & knowledgeable author. Nice narration. OTT female fantasy character NALA. Review by Rick may 11, 2022.

4.5 due to OTT ‘romance.’ G R E A T story

The-bad guys in our future are most likely to be of quite different ilk than the ones given in this 'future-ram-a' story .. 😎

Good sci .. But philosophically a bit off center

Book 3 attacks anyone who is not "educated".
The author equates believing in God to being a neanderthal.

So... the first 2 books were ok. I first read them a couple of years ago. This last one, however, book 3, directly attacked God and the belief in God. "Belief in God" and some kind of standard set of virtues were made out to be the villain. And unfortunately, the author used hypocritical, extreme, misogynist as evidence for his trope.

## Spoiler ‼️###

The 3rd book didn't pick up steam until after chapter 9. When it did, the future was cultish. The threat of nuclear war was second only to the threat of a misogynist world.

The cultural "badlands" of the future was indeed weird. But it was so extreme in its sinfulness, that it didn't align with any religion's principles (for which the author tried to argue caused the deviance).

other points:
* The main character is a James Bondish type of scientist that gets chased by ladies on any timeline.

* The author portrays all normal women (non theoretical physicists) as airheads, even when they are literally rocket scientists. Nala & Chloe are horny cultural anomalies.

Book 3 a slow starting, anti-God, erudite rubbish

book was fine story good but spending so much on the science is a turn off I wanted to listen to a story not go back to school

the irritation of the science lesson at the end of each book
