With comparisons to Tom Clancy, Michael Crichton, and Marvel’s multiverse storytelling, The Quantum Effect Series by Navy veteran-turned-author Nicklois Leonard is capturing the imagination of readers who crave action, intelligence, and pulse-pounding conspiracies. The first two installments, The Quantum Effect: Mission COVID-19 and The Quantum Effect: Snakes in the House, are now available, each a gripping blend of military science fiction, speculative pandemic origins, and high-stakes time-travel suspense.
In Mission COVID-19, Leonard dares to ask provocative questions: Was COVID-19 man-made? Was its release accidental, or something far more sinister? Set against the backdrop of the U.S. government and the Chinese Ministry of Health, this taut techno-thriller introduces the Quantum Transporter, a secret technology capable of bending time itself. Navy SEAL Commander Clint Maxwell and his elite team launch into a covert mission to expose the truth, one that could reshape global history.
Literary Titan describes the debut as “a thrilling science fiction story… a plot-focused adventure that never forgets to entertain.”
In the sequel, Snakes in the House, the saga escalates. As new COVID-19 variants emerge, Commander Maxwell teams up with historical expert Dr. Rosie Stark to conduct dangerous time-travel missions that may validate, or destroy, known world history. Meanwhile, CIA Director Janet Crawford and Dr. Shun work to uncover the global network manipulating the pandemic for political and financial gain. Involving the White House, Department of Defense, FDA, WHO, and Big Pharma, this installment weaves a complex narrative of hidden agendas, ethical dilemmas, and dark money players.
Literary Titan praised the book’s “speculative narrative… rooted in science fiction,” and commended Leonard’s ability to blend “technical intricacies and emotional depth” into a cohesive, edge-of-your-seat narrative.
A Series Resonating With Today’s Readers
Leonard’s work has struck a nerve among fans of pandemic conspiracy thrillers, quantum science fiction, and speculative geopolitics. A fan-favorite review calls it “a brilliantly constructed what-if that feels frighteningly possible.” With cinematic pacing, real-world parallels, and ethically driven storytelling, The Quantum Effect Series captivates readers drawn to quantum time travel, multiverse theory, covert military and government operations, pandemic conspiracy thrillers, Area 51 intrigue, and the complex intersection of morality, science, and power during global crises.
Both The Quantum Effect: Mission COVID-19 and The Quantum Effect: Snakes in the House have received the esteemed Literary Titan Book Award.
Availability
The Quantum Effect: Mission COVID-19 and The Quantum Effect: Snakes in the House are available now in paperback and eBook formats on Amazon and Barnes & Noble. The highly anticipated finale of the trilogy is scheduled for release in late 2025.
