kk asked Douglas Phillips:

When can we expect book 2? And how many books do you envision in total for the series?

Douglas Phillips Well, it's got a name: Quantum Void and a cover (see my Facebook page: QuantumSeriesBooks). I'm targeting January 2018 for publication, but I've learned that the editing process can range wildly, so no firm dates yet. The story is coming along nicely though - I hope you'll enjoy it!

I'll also write book 3: Quantum Time later in 2018.

I have a question about your discussion of critical density in the afterward to Quantum Void. You explain that to the extent we can measure it, the amount of mass in the universe is exactly the amount needed to cancel the expansive force. So why then is the universe expanding? Wouldn’t it just be at a “standstill”? John Toto (via email)

Surya

Surya asked Douglas Phillips:

I really liked the idea of 'Core' being some kind of AI (as I understand so far) as opposed to being a 'living being'. Will there be any more quantum books, and if so, would they touch upon the Why and How of Core's existence ? It would be interesting to also know how Core passes operational information around given the limitation of speed of information transmission capped at speed of light.

Jojo

Jojo asked Douglas Phillips:

Enjoyed all the Quantum books! You haven't offered any theory about how a destination might be pinpointed and selected through compressed space/time. I'd like to hear any thoughts on this? Using the compression travel technique, you have the possibility to write something that very few SF writers have ever done, which is a story/series that takes place in another galaxy. I'd like to see this.
