About this listen

The breathtaking debut from acclaimed short story writer Derek Kunsken

Belisarius is a quantum man, an engineered Homo quantus who fled the powerful insight of dangerously addictive quantum senses. He found a precarious balance as a con man, but when a client offers him untold wealth to move a squadron of warships across an enemy wormhole, he must embrace his birthright to even try. In fact, the job is so big that he'll need a crew built from all the new sub-branches of humanity. If he succeeds, he might trigger an interstellar war, but success might also point the way to the next step of Homo quantus evolution.

Although everyone has different levels of patience for techno jargon and complex storyline’s this is a very enjoyable book.
Once I absorbed all the characters and their interactions I wasn’t able to put this down. There were a few moments of relistening parts to clarify but overall I enjoyed it.

A space opera that explores what it is to be human against a back drop of a classic Sting. All the characters bring something new to the story and are brilliantly performed by T. Ryder Smith. This is a book you’ll want to tell people about.
