Summary
It is the limitations of our existence that make us love life and the beings we meet along the way. When teenager Miranda Ellis finds herself responsible for displacing the domestic cat population, sacrifice, love, and hope may be her biggest armament against forces that seek to use the science mishap as a weapon.
Heartbroken over losing her cat, Joule, along with billions of other pet owners, Miranda learns the quantum recipe has been changed to displace all cats. Yet in their place, a green and blue cat appears out of quantum thin air via a particle collider acceleration. As Earth Cat Zero proves the existence of quantum entanglement—living in both particle and wave form simultaneously—unnamed forces work to use the accident to selfish human advantages.
Can a team led by Earth Cat Zero, a teen girl, and an eccentric doctor use not only quantum physics but love and compassion to keep our universe spinning on course?

Enjoyable
The story is entertaining with lots of different elements coming together to produce a fun and entertaining read. The narration is solid, easy to listen to and really helps draw one into the story. Strange occurrences, government organisations it lends to nice page turner.
This said there is a lot of scientific terms and hypothesising around which for me is where the story gets lost, with conclusions and logical leaps arising from conversations I struggled to follow. Please note that I say this as someone who often enjoys hard sci-fi, with detailed descriptions.
Overall if you feel like you can get through the science you'll find an enjoyable read and a lovely way to spend an afternoon or two.

Good story, good science
A really good narrator and story. I would like to hear more about the wave form universe...and more about earth cats.

Quantum fun, but also woo...
I got a free copy of this from a Reddit giveaway, no strings attached but I want to be open about it.
Cats and quantum stuff are right up my street, and it certainly delivers on both.
The setting feels very much like something from the golden age of scifi - Azimov or Heinlein - with society in thrall of the amazing events going on. However being set in the current day this feels a little out of place...
A lot of the early stuff on quantum seemed reasonable to my lay-but-interested knowledge. Later on it gets a bit Jungian and then starts embracing Chopra-esque quantum nonsense. You're probably better of not knowing or caring anything about quantum physics and treating it all as technobabble while you worry about cats. For me the woo towards the end disappointed me.
But... I still enjoyed it!

really is a book about cats and quantum physics
I recieved a free copy in exchange for an independent review.
I thought the book sounded quirky a la Douglas Adams, hence the interest. But no, it became very clear by chapter 12 I was mistaken. It really is just a very long book about a cat.
At times the plot became bogged down with needlessly technical conversations. Given the world created it could have done with at least a little bit of humor. This wasn't my thing. Narrator was good though.
