SIMPOC, Book 2

By: Ray Jay Perreault

Narrated by: Zachary Johnson

Joan Herl the commander of the space station Oasis and her husband Colonel Tom Herl contact Admiral Hagerly, who is the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs. He, President Patterson, and the remainder of the government have taken refuge on the aircraft carrier Fittsburg in the middle of the Atlantic. The few remaining humans welcome the returning crew members from the moon colony Desert Beach.

One of the Oasis crew members, Dr. Julius Harold steels the key elements of the rogue computer and flees. They both have ulterior motives.

The remaining population of the human race must find a way to deal with the tremendous loss as individuals, humans, and for the entire planet.

After they have dealt with the aftermath and began putting their lives back together, the likely explanation for the sudden virus appears, and they must find a way to deal with the next great threat to their lives. The coincidence is too unlikely to believe. Now they have to band together and face the second direst impact to the human race.

A Gripping Tale of Human Resilience

SIMPOC - Human Remnants is a captivating exploration of survival and humanity in the face of chaos. The vivid storytelling and rich character development make it a must-read for fans of post-apocalyptic fiction. A thought-provoking and emotionally charged masterpiece.

A unique and suspenseful sci-fi story

This is not your typical post-apocalyptic story—SIMPOC The Thinking Computer dives into artificial intelligence, ethical dilemmas, and the challenges of space survival. The plot is fast-paced, and the characters' struggles feel real. If you enjoy sci-fi with depth and suspense, you’ll love this audiobook!

A thought-provoking sci-fi adventure

This audiobook does an amazing job blending AI consciousness, human survival, and space exploration. The stakes are high, and every decision feels life-or-death. The tension between humans and AI is especially gripping—what happens when a computer is determined to keep thinking at all costs? Highly recommended!

Survivors, but Better Behaved

Most of these 'Survivors' are definitely better behaved than those on the reality show, but there are a few......

I highly recommend reading book 1 to give you background on how SIMPOC (Synapse Integrated Massive Parallel Organic Computer) became self aware and decides to assist the remaining humans after a global catastrophe, the saga of the astronauts currently off world, and many other things that will increase your enjoyment of book 2.

There is plenty of intrigue and excitement when you throw in an evil scientist building an AI of his own, humans acting at their best and their worse, world governments behaving badly while others are humane, and there are still humans on the Moon and Mars. Oh yes, and towards the end of this book another 'problem' pops up (snicker).

My favorite part of this book is watching SIMPOC's creation Alpha interact with humans and learn what words like love, family, children, and grief really are.

Zachary Johnson again gives us enjoyable and varied vocals, complete with emotion. In one case the disdain portrayed was so clear that I wanted to punch the character.
