About this audiobook
High above the windswept plains of Kazakhstan, three astronauts on board a Russian Soyuz capsule begin their reentry. A strange shimmer in the atmosphere, a blinding flash of light, and the capsule vanishes in a blink as though it never existed.
On the ground, evidence points to a catastrophic failure, but a communications facility halfway around the world picks up a transmission that could be one of the astronauts. Tragedy averted, or merely delayed? A classified government project on the cutting edge of particle physics holds the clues, and with lives on the line, there is little time to waste.
Daniel Rice is a government science investigator. Marie Kendrick is a NASA operations analyst. Together, they must track down the cause of the most bizarre event in the history of human spaceflight. They draw on scientific strengths as they plunge into the strange world of quantum physics, with impacts not only to the missing astronauts, but to the entire human race.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Book connected to scientific thinking. Different.
Suspenseful and connected well.
Hope author planning to visit China sometimes soon. He would love the history and perspective from within the country. - Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5I wanted to like this book but it’s slow and low technology
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Great science based focus with good suspense. Great read and always kept me interested. Thanks can’t wait for book 2.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5How does a Russian Soyuz space capsule disappear without a trace during atmospheric re-entry? How did the same Soyuz capsule suddenly re-appear and land in the American Mid-west? More importantly, where were the three astronauts that were aboard and how had they disappeared without a trace? Finally, what were the strange objects found in the capsule in lieu of the astronauts and what was their purpose?Answering these questions is the assignment of Dr. Daniel Rice and Marie Kendrick. It is an assignment that will take them to the depths of the Fermilab particle physics accelerator and, along with Physicist Nala Pasquier, into the depths of the fourth dimension where things are not always as they seem…and they seem an unlikely place for first contact to occur. Certainly an international crisis, peppered through by the machinations of a financial conspiracy by a government contractor who would sell both his soul and that of humanity, for money.Quantum Space is an intriguing story that will keep readers on the edge of their seats. It is read through the night cutting edge science married to a storyline of both speculative science and conspiratorial fiction. Great entertainment with something to love for everyone…not to mention some food for thought.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Good fun and highly scientific.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Damn near a perfect science fiction story. Douglas Phillips writes hard science fiction the way it should be done. Firmly rooted in real science, not the technological fantasy that passes for most of sci-fi these days. The story was well developed, good characters, great plot. My only complaint was that the novel read way too quick, I sat down to read the book expecting to pass an hour or so, next thing I know, six hours later and I'm done. Fortunately, there is a sequel and he has written more. I'll be spending the next week reading everything Douglas Phillips has written.
