Puberty is tough. But try being Nitrogen.

Sixteen-year-old Noah Vale loves science, hates bullies, and definitely does not believe in aliens.

That changes the day a chef is murdered by lightning... on a perfectly clear day.

Determined to explain the impossible, Noah investigates. What he uncovers makes even less sense: clues tied to his missing grandfather, strange new abilities he can't explain, and a periodic table with opinions, allegiances, and a lot of unresolved family history.

At the centre of it all is something more impossible still: Mother Nature is divorcing Dark Matter, and Earth has been placed in witness protection.

The deeper Noah digs, the less time he has. Enemies are hiding in plain sight. The rules of reality don't hold. And somehow... it all comes back to pizza.

What begins as a murder investigation spirals into something far bigger. Beyond the world Noah thought he understood, powerful forces are already at war, and Earth isn't just another planet. It's the prize.

QUANTUM PIZZA is the first book in the Noah Vale Mysteries: a smart, high-concept YA sci-fi mystery packed with clever science, sharp humour and a conspiracy with cosmic consequences.
