DARK MATTER INTRIGUING SCIENCE FICTION STORY NOVEL

Dark Matter is an intriguing science fiction story. Author Blake Crouch and narrator, Jon Lindstrom, take us on a high-speed expedition through quantum physics and alternate lives, and one you will likely never forget. 

  •  Dark Matter is an engaging story having to do with Quantum physics. I certainly cannot say I understand how the theories work, or if any of the theories are sound. But, I can say that some parts of the theories do tie in with things I have wondered about over the years.
  •  So, I decided to take a little quantum leap of my own when I downloaded and listened to the Dark Matter audiobook. Thus, I began my trip through the story of Jason Dessen’s quantum journey where he is nagged by the question that precipitated his strange quantum sojourn: “Are you happy with your life?” 

 

As the Dark Matter story begins, Jason is kidnapped at gun point and drugged. And the next thing Jason knows, he is on a quantum leap through his life where he encounters various versions of himself.

  • For those of you like me, who have minimal knowledge in that area, but enjoy the idea of quantum leaps and what that might entail, Dark Matters might be just the ticket to imagine a quantum journey through various versions of your life…and what might have been. 

 

I loved Dark Matter. I was totally engrossed in Jason’s story. The audiobook was  narrated by Jon Lindstrom, who I understand is a talented actor who has enjoyed quite a successful career in daytime television.

  • Mr. Lindstrom has a smooth and pleasing voice with which he expertly portrays Jason Dessen, along with all the other characters in the story. I found Lindstrom’s narration of Dark Matter to be nothing less than superb.  


All in all, I found Blake Crouch’s Dark Matter to be an emotional, yet a fun, fast, and furious adventure through quantum physics. 

  • If you decide to read Dark Matter, and, if you would enjoy the feeling of being completely immersed in a story, I highly recommend listening to the audio version of Dark Matter.
