This post-Apocalyptic story pits artificial intelligence programmed to help the survivors against another computer with different agenda. The story leads into the next phase of the series called Earth II where the few survivors encounter human’s first contact, and a threatened alien invasion. SIMPOC the first thinking computer is released when its programmer succumbs to a suspicious virus of unknown origin. SIMPOC is programmed to survive and learn. As the world is collapsing, SIMPOC works with Joan Herl and her husband Tom, the President, and Chairmen of the Joint Chiefs trying to keep everything together.

About the author
Ray Jay Perreault
54 books141 followersI’m a retired Aeronautical Engineer who is trying to bring a different style to science fiction writing. I’ve always loved science fiction and I’m trying to write with deeper characters and create stories and situations that a reader can feel part of. The be honest I love a hero that has amazing weapons, takes on hundreds of aliens and can survive anything, but I also want to read a situation and be able to relate to it. An extrapolation of what might really happen with a little less stretch in my imagination.
I’ve been fortunate and I flew in the US Air Force for 10 years, during which time I flew C-130’s and visited 27 countries, then I flew T-38's and trained the best pilots in the world, as well as the first female US Air Force pilots. I then was fortunate to spend 28 years in a major aerospace firm and worked on some of the best programs in the world including the F-23, F-35, B-2, Global Hawk and many I can’t tell you about….
I hope I can bring my real life experiences into my writing so you can appreciate my work.

Earth has been hit by a sudden, fast-moving, extremely lethal virus, of unknown origin. Most of the human race has been killed, without even the time to identify the origins of the virus.
Now most of the human race is dead, and the survivors are working to pull their remnants together and save the species and hopefully civilization.
We follow Joan Herl, commander of the Oasis space station, which supported the research colonies on the Moon and Mars, and her husband, Colonel Tom Herl; the US President, and other political and military leaders representing what's left of the US government; the intelligent computers, SIMPOC, Alpha 1, and others, whose programming leads them to choose to support the humans; and Dr. Julius Howard, who sees an opportunity, using his intelligent computer, to become ruler of the world.
They all have serious challenges ahead of them, and more mysteries and challenges to discover. The death toll has been so high--it's possible that fewer than 100,000 humans are left alive--that they've all lost most of the people they knew and cared about, and they need to build a new society in the wake of that. The characters are likable (except, of course, Julius and his intelligent computer), and interesting. The pace moves, the choices make sense, and despite being set in the aftermath of a pandemic that has nearly wiped out the human race (no, I can't explain why I decided to listen to it just now), it's got a surprisingly upbeat tone.
Recommended.

SIMPOC: Human Remnants by Ray Jay Perreault This book picks up where Book 1, SIMPOC: The Thinking Computer, leaves off. Commander Joan Herl and her husband Colonel Tom Herl are trying to pick up the pieces of the devastating virus that swept over the world. Meanwhile, Dr. Julius Harold is off plotting his mad scientist victory in world domination. The US President is safely out on an aircraft carrier while parts of the world continue to battle one another.
This book has quite a larger cast and therefore jumps around quite a bit more trying to show what everyone’s up to. There’s very little SIMPOC interaction, but we do get to spend time with his stand in, the android Alpha. The second half of the book settles down a bit and Joan, Tom, and Alpha become the central characters more or less. Overall, I liked Book 1 a bit more because it had a smaller cast and a tighter plot. I never really got attached to the characters in this book simply because we spent so little time with each one.
I did enjoy watching Dr. Julius Harold. He’s definitely got the mad scientist vibe going on. He takes off to set up his lab some place in Colorado. He has this crazy idea that involves a biomass brain and somehow mapping his own and overlaying it. I am not sure yet what he wishes to accomplish in the long run, but I definitely look forward to seeing what challenges he poses for our good guys.
We still have folks in space (at the Moon base and living on Mars) in this future scifi. Folks there are having to make hard choices about returning to Earth or not. I appreciated their dilemmas. But, again, we spent so little time with them it was hard to be emotionally invested in their plight.
There’s only two female characters in this large cast. Joan Herl, who showed up late in Book 1, is primarily in the story to either need comforting or to provide it. She makes few decisions and I wasn’t impressed with her. There’s one other lady, a wife and mother, who has maybe 2 lines and is rescued with her family. If the virus targeted women in particular and they are in short supply, no character has commented on that fact.
The ending has a very unexpected twist and I was pretty excited about this. While most of this book had been kind of humdrum for me, the ending adds a new player that has me worried for the human remnants indeed! It will be interesting to see where the author takes us in the next installment. The human species may not live through this one!

Narration: Zachary Johnson once again did a nice job. He has a variety of regional accents that allowed him to keep all his characters distinct. I especially liked his slightly sinister and definitely focused voice for Dr. Harold.

Survivors TV Show, 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.

I upgraded this rating. Although indie, and still rough around the edges, I still remember it from reading it years ago. I like it, and it was quick and kept me interested. The novel accomplished what it set out to do and really 'humanized' the AI in a good way.

ome on Kindle Unlimited bit more surprised than used to, read a LOT and in a lot of genres, lot of things going on in this story, and the writer told it well. Also just read SIMPOC by same writer, Gemini, and Science Fiction Anthology: Vol1 which has "Progeny" "The Greatest Host" "Circle is Closed" ‘Good Morning…’ Same genre basically but definite differences in each type of book somehow Kindle Unlimited Odd but enjoyable.
book 1
99.9997% of all humans have been wiped out by a very suspicious virus. SIMPOC’s programmer doesn’t come in to work, that day, the next; or ever. The commander of the space station Oasis, Joan Herl is forced to abandon the station because of dwindling resources. When they land on earth they are attacked by another thinking computer who would do anything to protect itself and to continue thinking.
Book 2 of SIMPOC Series – 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

( Format : Audiobook )
""...everyone simply went home to wait for the end""
Listening to Zachary Johnson's narration brings a greater immediacy to the audio version than simply reading the book. Although far less than in SIMPOC, the Thinking Computer, the story is told partially through the communications and Mr.Johnson's rendering of the voices of several computers is superb, making them sound authentically mechanical but still easy on the ear. Far from them seeming just bland, he manages to invest SIMPOK and Alpha, in particular with an internal feeling which shows through the unemotional reading whilst completely differentiating them from the human protagonists.
Who was your favourite character and why?
Most definitely Alpha who not only protects his human charges but also observes, learning to understand human responses and in so doing developing emotionally.himself.
This is not the usual disaster story format and the interwoven series just keeps getting better. Having now moved from the computer's perception of the viral spread, then through the same scenarios from the human perspective, this book has taken both forward from where Virus, 72 Hours to Live left off ... and has now introduced yet another element. I am so looking forward to finding out what happens next. Brilliant.
Highly recommended

The second book lost the edge of the POV from SIMPOC. It was more focused on the human characters, yet they lacked depth and emotion. Well, they grieved, which I give KUDOs, but there is no anger nor confusion, nor a direction to put down roots and come up with a game plan.
Most importantly, it lacks urgency to create a new home, a plan to start over, or any other kind of permanent stability. As most of the main characters are not Joe Schmoe from timbuktu, but seasoned and supposedly experienced, eduacated leaders in various fields, it loses credibility as they interact with one another with little to no conviction and control of the situation.

My rating: 4.5 stars
Audiobook narrator Zachary Johnson rating: 4.5 stars
I was surprised at how good this book was. I listened to the first book and it seems that sequels are really hit-and-miss with books like these. But, this really shocked me at how entertaining and interesting it was. I am really looking forward to the third book in the series (if it comes out!).
The interactions between the humans and the Alpha computer were great. I thought the author did a good job with showing how this learning computer learned about human emotions and the silly intricacies of humans (even if he did not fully understand what ‘alone time’ meant for married people!).
One thing I want to point out is how much repeatability there was in this book. I would think that some people may not like this since it does make the book a little longer. However, I feel like little bits of ‘review’ here are there are very important – especially to readers who have a hard time staying focused (like me… sometimes…).
This audiobook was narrated brilliantly. I feel that that added so much to the story and helped make it a complete work. The narrator really gave feeling to the situation at hand. He made it feel like he was one of the last remaining humans on Earth and was trying to take it all in. When the main characters were surprised at things, the narrator acted surprised at things. He did well with changing accents for different people. One place I would like to see improvement would be his voice for different characters of the same accent (the American human characters) – it would help to change a little for males and females, etc.
Thanks, Ray, for the free book!

Full disclosure: I received the Audible audiobook for Simpoc2 for free from audiobookblast dot com in exchange for an honest review. Regarding the audiobook format, I really enjoyed Zachary Johnson’s narration of the book and thought he did a solid job with the different human and robot voices.
This is the second short book in a series. In the first story, we are introduced to Simpoc also known as Synapse Integrated Massive Parallel Organic Computer. Simpoc becomes self aware and following a catastrophe on earth befriends the remaining humans. Add in the appearance late in the story of an evil scientist and a rogue computer, I couldn’t wait to read the next in the series. I was half-expecting a battle of AIs similar to that in William Hertling’s AI Apocalypse. But that is not what happened, this story is primarily about the remaining humans, about the search for lost loved ones, about a race to discover the true nature of the virus that has devastated human society.
Bottom line, I really liked this short book and would recommend it. There are a lot of interesting characters and it is an exciting story. However, it is part of a series, so you need to read the prior book for context. Also, be prepared to wait for the next book to see what happens as the story ends on a cliffhanger. Will the remaining humans survive the looming threat to their very existence? What about the rogue AI and the evil scientist? What about Simpoc?

I really enjoyed this second installment of the SIMPOC series. I, again, really love the idea of artificial intelligence in an imaginary world. I'm actually very apprehensive of AI in our real world though.
RJP does an excellent job of continuing the story and weaves together a short but seamless timeline of events that carries you through the evolution of post-apocalyptic humans and the development and growth of AI. The interactions are brought to life by Zachary Johnson who does a very good job of relating the story in his voice. To me, it's full of life and not monotonous or boring.
I love the dialogue between the humans and the AI and have enjoyed watching the two AI systems grow in their respective ways. One good, one bad. It brings to mind the debate of nature vs. nurture in that the AI seems to be the child absorbing it's surroundings and learning it's behavior from those around them.
Good listen and I would recommend if you like science-fiction or post-apocalyptic stories.

I have received from the author a copy of this book in audio format in exchange for an honest review.
Just a few humans have survived the virus and SIMPOC and other computers make their mission to learn and assist these humans.
After the abrupt inclusion of humans in the first novel I was a bit worried about the development of events, but this second part is much more balanced. We met the computer, we met the humans, and now they can interact and start working in rebuilding the world, when they discover what the virus really was.
This intrigue was what I missed on the first novel, and elevates the story to a different level. The book ends with a cliffhanger that will have us wondering what will come next.
Zachary Johnson did again a good job, but I missed a bit of tone changes to differentiate the characters.
In conclusion, it is a book I would recommend, but I would like to see all the stories together one day published in a regular length and format book.

I'm a bit sad that I didn't read SIMPOC the Thinking Computer before this book. I think I would have understood things a lot quicker and enjoyed the story faster. Despite this, I enjoyed the story. It definitely has an Andromeda Strain/Space Odyssey vibe. It does have a bit of a cliffhanger just before the climax of the overall series, so that's a bit of a shame.
I listened to the audio version and Zachary Johnson did a decent job narrating the computer parts, but overall he missed out on characterization. All the voices and narration used the same voice, so it was difficult to tell the characters apart. But his pacing was good.

This follows directly on from Book 1 - probably really one volume together. The survivors at the Space Consortium communicate with others - mostly at sea. SIMPOC seems to be developing further skills - and the opposing AI also features in a small way. We learn who is most likely responsible for the virus that has depopulated the planet, And... there's more to come.
I think that the major interesting strand in Book 1 (SIMPOC's growing awareness and skills) is diluted by the greater emphasis on the remaining human population which is a pity. However there is still a lot going on - the rogue scientist and his AI for one.

This is a fascinating look into what a computer might feel like and what would happen if things went more than a little awry. A virus has wiped out almost all humans and SIMPOC, a newly turned on computer has just begun earning about how things work when the computer finds it is alone. Now guess what happens? Pick up this short story for an interesting take on a subject I think more than a few people worry about.

Zachary Johnson again does a fine job narrating this short book.We pick up where #1 left off.Tom and Joan,married astronauts,return to a completely changed Earth.Computers are in charge and at war with one another.This sets us up for book 3.This audiobook was provided to me at no cost for a fair and honest review
