In Quantum Mind, by M.D. Hanley, readers are taken on a gripping science fiction journey with twins Kat and Pat as they encounter the mysterious Alder. Asserting that Earth is not just a passive planet but a sentient being, Alder offers compelling evidence to back his claim. As the twins discover their quantum abilities, resembling superpowers, they become entangled in Alder’s mission, driven by the potent colored stones he holds. Their adventure takes them across England and Ireland, revealing that Alder is part of a broader network of cosmic mystics. Some are his allies, while others stand opposed. The twins’ involvement becomes paramount for Earth’s very survival.

Though the second in a series, newcomers to Hanley’s world will swiftly acclimate. The prologue quickly lays the groundwork, and Alder’s insightful dialogues further bridge any gaps.

Quantum Mind pays homage to concepts treasured by fans of the Star Trek universe – from sentient planets to humanoid guardians for these celestial bodies. While the book may tread on familiar terrain, this doesn’t diminish its charm. The twins, Kat and Pat, are engaging leads, and Alder’s intricate connection to Earth offers layers of emotional depth.

The unfolding narrative steadily amplifies the urgency of their quest. Remarkably, the Earth transforms from a backdrop to an emotive entity with desires and imperatives as compelling as its human protagonists. Hanley personifies the planet, deserving commendation for this nuanced portrayal. Dive into Quantum Mind for an enthralling read that blurs the lines between the cosmic and the personal.
