Quantum Radio

Great, quick introduction with a full story and some closed ends so that if the sequel never comes I'll be fine. 

Quantum Radio took me by surprise. I wanted a good Sci-Fi. I wanted some thrills and mystery. I got all that and more.

First off, this is definitely for fans that are into having some technical jargon in their Sci-Fi reads. This has a lot of that and, while normally it would make things slow for me or make me lose interest, that wasn't the case here. It actually made things more interesting for me.

There is also a historical aspect to the story as it goes over history and timelines. I enjoyed this as well. Again, normally I wouldn't, but somehow it just worked for me with this one.

I was having major nostalgia while reading Quantum Radio. It has vibes of the TV shows Sliders and Quantum Leap. If you know what shows I mean and you loved them, then you need this book. If you are a Sci-Fi fan, who also loves thrills, and dystopian settings...you need this book.

It's been a while since I really enjoyed a well-rounded science fiction story. I assume with the way this ended there will be more to come and I can't wait for the next installment. I sincerely appreciate the publisher and Kaye Publicity for the review copy. All opinions expressed are my own.

2.5 stars.

3.5/5 stars
This is a cool Sliders episode. I wonder what the next episode is gonna be like.

Stargate Meets The One. There really is a lot to love about this book, and the fact that it has elements of two scifi movies that I personally love (one which became a cult classic, the other of which has largely been forgotten) was more icing on the cake and something I could use in this review to give an idea of the scope of this book without actually revealing any spoilers. If you like either of the IPs I listed in the title here, you're likely going to enjoy this more hard-scifi (ish) take on them, where Riddle manages to ground them at least somewhat more in actual reality... and yet still tell an intruging tale of family, secrets, and how far a person will go within the scope of what he has set up. Truly an excellent setup here, and apparently even Riddle himself doesn't yet know how long he'll take this series - but I for one can't wait to see where he takes it next. Will it be a Stargate type? Quantum Leap type? Something truly novel and groundbreaking? Riddle's talent as a storyteller - shown well in this very book - alone says the next book will be good. I challenge him to make it truly, truly *great*. Very much recommended.
