Bill Combs, author of “The Quantum Gate” (Independently published, April 8, 2025). What’s the Story: What if the secrets of the universe weren’t just theories but hidden truths waiting to be uncovered? Renowned physicist Ethan Cross was once celebrated for his brilliance—until his research on consciousness and the nature of reality made him a pariah in the scientific community. When a cryptic message from a long-lost mentor draws him to Egypt, he discovers that the Hall of Records, an ancient repository of lost knowledge, is more than just legend. It is real. And it is waiting. But Ethan is not the only one seeking the Hall. The Guardians, an ancient order, have sworn to protect its secrets. The Collective, a powerful shadow organization, will stop at nothing to control it. And Ethan's own estranged daughter, Sofi, an astrophysicist grounded in logic, is caught up in a world she refuses to believe in. As Ethan and Sofi uncover the Hall’s trials, they realize the truth is far more dangerous than they imagined. The Hall does not merely hold knowledge—it demands something in return. A choice. A sacrifice. A reckoning with the past and the future. When the final door opens, only one question will remain: What choice would you make?
