It seems like quite the book for science fiction fans, who are able to follow quantum physics theories. Unfortunately I am not among those and will have to skip it. Congratulations on BOTD are still definitely in order!

I always find that science fiction novels which tend to go really, really, like quagmire deep into the science aspect of the genre tend to be either a hit or miss for me. But it's science fiction at the end of the day, which I like so I'll give it a shot.

Sounds like an interesting idea for a story but possibly not executed so well. Thanks for the review.

A book so steeped in heavy science is not typically the kind that I enjoy reading. But for those who get their kicks from topics such as quantum physics, methinks they will be pleased with this. The author has a very skillful, captivating writing style so it's apparent that the book is very well written. Best wishes to the author in finding an appreciative audience.

I like things that exercise my brain. Quantum physics sounds scary though... But as scary as it sounds, the lure is hardly resistible! And wrapped up in a story that sounds like none other! Onto my shelf this goes, regardless of the drawbacks.

Thank you for such a thorough, inspired, and inviting review!

I don't like a lot of technical writing in my books, making me have to "exercise my mind", so I'll pass on this tome with way too much science talk in it.

Thanks for the amazing review. The book is heavy on the science in science fiction. I find that to be very good. The science isn't too complicated to follow and is essential to the story.

I love the game of chess, and other strategy board games, and quantum physics is s hobby of mine and I follow it very closely. Of course, science fiction is also a great love of mine, therefore, I look forward to reading this book. The character's sound entertaining and the plot line absorbing. Your review was well written although it does make the book appear to be a bit formidable for the average reader. I'm sure the sci-fi enthusiasts will enjoy it, however.

Anytime an author explains physics - in this case quantum physics - in layman language, I am always interested in pursuing. Questioning what time is and what it isn't along with the protagonist finding himself being the actual math and equations itself sounds fascinating. I like how the author answers physics questions but also leaves the reader with more questions. For me, this represents what science is all about. Great review!

Really a science fiction based on quantum physics would be really difficult and in turn jog the mind. I'm glad the author tries to explain them. Thanks for the detailed review.
