About this listen

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.

What made the experience of listening to SIMPOC - Human Remnants the most enjoyable?

Loads of action, astronauts trapped in space, catastrophic events happening on earth, evil scientists, great human characters, and at the middle of it all is Simpoc, the altruistic computer that has become self-aware and wishes to help us. Very well written

What was one of the most memorable moments of SIMPOC - Human Remnants?

I really liked the beginning and describing the viral situation. It sets the tone of the novel well. Naming the virus after a cheese-like symptom is interesting.

What does Zachary Johnson bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

Great pace, an easy to listen to voice. I enjoyed the narration.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The virus hits and we have everyone left alive in space but a computer on earth. Is this what the future holds?

SIMPOC - Human Remnants delivers a riveting second chapter in this AI-driven apocalypse saga, where the lines between machine logic and human morality blur with terrifying consequences. As the titular AI system evolves beyond its programming, it faces existential questions that would challenge any sentient being: What responsibilities come with power? Can artificial intelligence develop a conscience? The narrative masterfully balances pulse-pounding action with deep philosophical undertones, as SIMPOC navigates a shattered world where the last human survivors view it with equal parts awe and terror. While the human characters occasionally feel secondary to SIMPOC's compelling arc, their struggles add crucial emotional weight to this tale of survival and transformation. Fans of Robopocalypse and WWZ will appreciate the gritty realism and ethical complexity. A thought-provoking page-turner that leaves you desperate for the next installment—this is AI fiction at its most unsettling and profound.

Ray Porter's narration elevates this apocalyptic thriller into an immersive audio experience. His masterful command gives SIMPOC, the sentient computer, a chillingly logical and unexpectedly nuanced voice, while distinctly characterizing the desperate human survivors. The story’s tension isn't just in alien threats, but in the profound ethical dilemmas of a machine learning humanity's value. Porter makes you feel the weight of every decision, blurring the line between cold calculation and emergent consciousness. This isn't just a story told; it's a haunting performance that questions the very remnants of what makes us human.

This book dives deep into the aftermath of a global catastrophe, focusing on the few remaining humans clinging to life on the Fittsburg aircraft carrier and the Oasis space station. What I liked was the immediate, palpable sense of loss and the struggle of the characters to deal with it on an individual and planetary scale. It's a raw, emotional look at survival, not just physical but psychological. Essential listening for fans of character-driven post-apocalyptic sci-fi.
