Complete audiobook review

Hyperspace is not a new book. It was first published in 1994. So it’s well-known among some readers. And although the material is almost 30 years old, it’s still relevant today.

I love Michio Kaku’s work. I saw some of his science TV series and always liked how he explained complex scientific facts in a simple form. I also liked references to some books that use the same ideas that the author explains.

Narration by Tim Lounibos is very good and easy to follow. The audiobook format is perfect for readers who want to read the book but maybe until now didn’t dare to dive in. As always, with science books, I recommend listening to this audiobook slowly. Although, the audiobook is easy to follow, and the author explains everything simply. 

Thanks to HighBridge Audio for the advanced copy and this opportunity! This is a voluntary review and all opinions are my own.

Pretty tough reading! I'm not sure I absorbed too much of it, but I enjoyed it while reading it and could probably get an extra sentence into a dinner table physics conversation before I was lost.

I liked the various theories surrounding different dimensions and the newer dimension of time and space. Wormholes and blackholes were very interesting to read about. The ending was a bit tragic for me, however the details and figures in the book were very helpful. Definitely recommend this book for anyone who's curious about space but doesn't want to be bombarded with huge technical terms.

I was taken by the title and had to delve into this book so I could get to the 10th dimension. Apparently our 4 dimensional universe was created when it split from a 10 dimensional universe at the big bang. Another 6 dimensional universe went somewhere, but it is/was so small we can't measure it. Read the book for full details!

I didn't expect to enjoy this so much, but the author made the concepts easy to understand. Also, I didn't realise that physicists are okay with the concept of extraterrestrial beings. Unfortunately it's highly unlikely however, that humans and E.Ts would exist in the same time period. They could have been, or they will be, perhaps long after our extinction.

This was intensely enlightening. I enoyed many other books by Michio Kaku, but this one really stood out!
