About this listen

An eye-opening exploration of the human mind and free will–real science wrapped up in a novel.

In the hope of distracting himself from his heartache, George Bennet, a mild-mannered professor of theoretical physics, accepts an invitation by UNESCO to join a dream team of experts assisted by a powerful AI, tasked with unravelling the enigma of the human mind.

As this seemingly innocent academic investigation twists and turns, George suspects they are being duped into aiding a sinister plan, which threatens to shatter the very foundations of society. When the unthinkable truth emerges as their final conclusion, and the plan is exposed, George and the team must be silenced. No matter the cost.

What is the unthinkable truth? Will George survive to reveal it? Only one thing is certain: humanity will never be the same.

Drawing on solid scientific research, The Unthinkable Truth will make listeners question their own human nature.

Cerebral SciFi With a Twist

If you're into science, thrillers, or just love stories that make you think, you’ll enjoy this book.

The story starts with an interesting premise—a team of experts, guided by AI, trying to unlock the secrets of the human mind. The build-up is pretty engaging, especially for anyone interested in neuroscience, AI, and free will.

The characters are well-drawn, and there’s humor mixed in with the scientific discussions, which helps break up the more intense parts.

What I liked about the book is that it blends real science with an edge-of-your-seat plot that’ll have you hooked from the beginning. It’s one of those rare books where the more you read, the more you question your own life and choices.

In short, it’s a thought-provoking, thrilling read, and well worth your time.

A Thrilling Dive into the Human Mind

As a reader, I found myself both intellectually stimulated and emotionally invested in this genre-defying debut.

George Bennet, a professor of theoretical physics, takes on an assignment from UNESCO to be part of an elite team of experts assisted by a powerful AI. The mission: to unravel the mysteries of the human mind. Initially a distraction from his personal heartache, this academic pursuit soon morphs into a high-stakes thriller as George realizes they might be pawns in a much larger, sinister plan. The novel’s pace is relentless, keeping you on the edge of your seat as the layers of deception peel away to reveal the unthinkable truth.

Bennet's ability to weave real scientific research into the narrative is nothing short of genius. The scientific insights are presented in an accessible manner, making complex concepts understandable without dumbing them down. This balance makes the book not only a thrilling read but also an enlightening one. It truly makes you question the nature of free will and the depths of human consciousness.
