Review

"It has been a long time since I read a good spy novel, so it was easy for me to pick up The Quantum Contingent. I love a spy thriller with over-the-top, futuristic technologies and gadgets, and author Gregory R Simpson didn't disappoint. I was not aware of quantum computing and what it is capable of, but this novel has been a great educational experience for me. I loved how the story does not get technical but uses technology to further develop the plot. Jack and Sarah are the perfect partners for this story. They worked together incredibly well, they understand each other, and their synergy is on point. The descriptions are fun, the imagery is vivid, and the dialogues are exciting. The story progresses at a steady pace, develops perfectly, and lets the mystery behind the Quantum Contingent and their leader simmer before readers learn the truth. I loved it and highly recommend it!" - Rabia Tanveer, Readers' Favorite, 5 Stars

5.0 out of 5 stars Future Tech, SpaceX and Quantum Computers wrapped into a spy novel
Reviewed in the United States on March 17, 2022
Verified Purchase
This is a really great spy novel that incorporates today's tech into a compelling story about a brother / sister spy team. The author does not spend time in intricate details of how the tech works like Tom Clancy but instead uses it to incorporate into character development. If you like a fast paced novel that develops the characters in a way that adds to the suspense this is one to read!

5.0 out of 5 stars A fun glimpse into the future of technology

Quantum computing is coming. Most people don’t understand how it works or how far reaching its effects could be. This spy thriller does a great job of giving a glimpse into the possibilities and the pitfalls without pulling the reader into the depths of the technology. It’s a fun, fast moving read that takes you all over the world while entertaining and educating.

This book is great fun! The use of cutting-edge and just-over-the-horizon technology make the story plausible and, at the same time, educational. The vivid descriptions of the story’s many locations all over the world only add to the excitement. The author’s background in technology and extensive world-wide travel is richly reflected.

Great Tech plus Thriller novel. The author did a great job of weaving relevant technology futures together with a Jason Borne like set of characters. Having a brother sister duo made it even more interesting. This is. A quick read and especially interesting for technophiles.

The author can see the future full of self-driving cars and military drones, but the protagonists still eat slaughtered animals. Time to learn about food tech! Carnist and speciesist.
