Uncertainty Principle

Singularity #3

by R.M. Olson

The Joias System—and all of humanity—is in deadly peril.
The only way the motley group of human survivors, led by former diplomat Alba Espina, can prevent a massacre is to destroy the aliens' portal mechanism. But for a rag-tag party more skilled in diplomacy than demolition, stranded in an unfamiliar system, with both human and alien soldiers on their trail after their desperate escape from the aliens' capital—it seems like an impossible task.
And those aren’t the only complications. There are other aliens in this system as well, ones that see humans not as enemies, but as prey. They're apex predators, and once they're on the hunt, they never let up. And they’ve caught the humans’ scent …
Uncertainty Principle is book three in the Singularity series, R.M. Olson's action-packed, epic space opera.

About the author

R.M. Olson writes queer, feel-good space opera, featuring diverse casts, found families, and loads of action. R.M. has ridden the Trans Siberian railway, jumped off the highest bungee jump in the world, gone cage-diving with great white sharks, faced down a charging buffalo bull, and knows how to milk a goat. Currently they reside in Alberta, Canada with their four children, three cats, and a dog the size of a small bear. R.M. goes hiking and skiing more often than they probably have time for, eats more chocolate than is probably good for them, and reads more books than is probably prudent.

Reviews

[Susan Welch · Rating 5 out of 5]

I enjoyed this very much, though for a couple reasons I'd probably say 4.5 stars instead of five. Mostly because it's starting to feel really dragged out, there's just so much "we'll talk about it later" (then later never comes) type stuff and failure to communicate and a never ending stream of problems; it's frustrating not to see very much resolution. Ends on a cliffhanger, of course. It would be a better novel to be only Aran and Istvay's story.

I loved it!! The character arcs are moving fabulously (Alba has grown much more than I ever expected) and the story is super fast-paced! I love the world building; it's so easy to be right in the action. This is a very immersive series and I definitely recommend all of R.M. Olson's books.

Honestly, if nothing else showcases this author's skill in writing developed characters and watching them grow and develop even further, Alba will. Once again, I enjoyed every second of this fun and fast paced romp through space <3
