About this listen
From the laboratory bed, the candidate Jackson Stafford has arisen, intact and fully aware of the events that transpired within the Pandora Project. From deep within the facility, multiple employees are seeking a way to rebel, to tell their story about the Pandora Project to the awaiting world. Dr. Brody has resolved himself to become one of those who will open the secrets and reveal them to the entire world.
Aboard the global jet, Ben, Jackson’s friend within the inner-room, has prepared something, a beast, to help those aboard to survive the approaching plane crash. La Tulipan, in the present time, has been directed by his fellow travelers to once again travel back in time to help the three adventurers, Matt, Sarah, and Deb, in the investigation into the truth behind the project.

Dr. Tyson Klein is a quantum physicist who has dedicated his entire life to his research. At CERN, he analyses data generated by the Large Hadron Collider, the world's biggest and most powerful particle accelerator. Now, Ty believes he's found a pattern in its output. It looks like an organised data stream, being broadcast over what he calls a quantum radio. Could it be a signal from another universe? A message sent from the future? Or something else entirely?

Daniel Rice is a government science investigator whose specialty is solving seemingly intractable problems through scientific inquiry. But Daniel's intellectual strength is sorely tested by the bizarre realities he finds in the quantum world. Extra dimensions of space trap the unwary, probability replaces cause and effect, and time isn't what anyone imagined. The other side of the mirror is a place full of dangers, but it's also somewhere a dedicated scientist can uncover secrets that connect humans with something greater.

A world with no hunger, no disease, no war, no misery: Humanity has conquered all those things and has even conquered death. Now Scythes are the only ones who can end life - and they are commanded to do so in order to keep the size of the population under control. Citra and Rowan are chosen to apprentice to a scythe - a role that neither wants. These teens must master the "art" of taking life, knowing that the consequence of failure could mean losing their own.

Any kind of death annuls everything except his present knowledge and returns him to the past. This is a good way to test all sorts of things. That is, it would be, if not for one little thing.... This loop has real lords and it's unlikely that they'll be happy to hear about an uninvited guest. And that isn't his only problem - all of his memories of the last year have simply disappeared, but the world around him has changed in the meantime.
