Každý člověk balancuje na tenké hranici dobra a zla. Každý je schopen ji překročit… Dá se však tento krok předpokládat? Odvrátit? Nebo obrátit? A může v tom klíčovou roli sehrát kvantová fyzika? Odpovědi nabízí mistrovský filozofický psychothriller Kvantová noc. Experimentální psycholog Jim Marchuk pracuje na vývoji metody, která má spolehlivě odhalit psychopaty skrývající se ve společnosti. Pak však zcela náhodou zjistí, že mu z paměti zmizel půl rok života před dvaceti lety – a že to byl půl rok temný a klíčový. Kontaktuje proto Kaylu Huronovou, svou tehdejší přítelkyni, která se věnuje výzkumu lidského vědomí.

Hybrids is the climactic book of Robert J. Sawyer's Neanderthal Parallax trilogy. Torn between two worlds, geneticist Mary Vaughan and Neanderthal physicist Ponter Boddit struggle to find a way to make their relationship work. Aided by banned Neanderthal technology, they plan to conceive the first hybrid child, a symbol of hope for the peaceful coexistence of two versions of reality. But after an experiment shows that Mary's religious faith--something completely absent among Neanderthals--is a quirk of Homo sapiens neurology, Ponter and Mary must decide whether their child should be predisposed to atheism or belief. Meanwhile, as Mary's Earth faces the impending collapse of its planetary magnetic field, Mary's boss, the enigmatic Jock Krieger, has turned envious eyes on the unspoiled Eden of the Neanderthal world. In Hybrids, Sawyer concludes his signature speculations about alternative ways to be human, exploding our preconceptions of morality and gender, faith and love.

Jake Sullivan has cheated death: he's discarded his doomed biological body and copied his consciousness into an android form. The new Jake soon finds the love that eluded him when he was encased in flesh - he falls for the android version of Karen, a woman rediscovering the joys of life now that she too is no longer constrained by a worn-out body.

In a parallel world in which Neanderthals, rather than homo sapiens, became the dominant intelligent species, a dangerous scientific experiment traps a Neanderthal physicist on Earth.

Neanderthal physicist Ponder Boddit resumes his relationship with geneticist Mary Vaughn as cultural and scientific exchanges begin between the two parallel Earths--our own, and one in which Neanderthals became the dominant species.
