In 2082, androids are an essential part of daily life. Some are helpful, some would make better toasters, and some are so human-like they're creepy. Back in Atlanta, Detective Cooper's latest client has him searching for her boyfriend who she thinks was replaced by a simulation, an illegal clone android. The guy also happens to be a popular new congressman. To make matters more complicated, Cooper keeps crossing paths with his ex, FBI Agent Geri Harper, as they seem to be looking for the same guy. Cooper knows he's getting close when Geri is kidnapped, but when she resurfaces in Washington and goes on a killing spree, he knows it isn't her. Now under suspicion himself, Cooper must find the real Geri to prove her innocence, not to mention hunt down the powerful villain behind it all. Never a dull moment.

An intriguing detective story with scifi elements and a traditional feel By Tonja Drecker I read the first book in this series (Pop Travel), enjoyed it and looked forward to diving into this one. And although the first book did make it easy to know where each character was coming from, SIMULATION can be read as a stand-alone.This story starts two years after Cooper uncovers the truth behind the disappearances due to Pop Travel. Cooper has broken relations with Geri, and although I found this a little disheartening, the change in their relationship added a nice spring board for a new type of tension between them.The book is told mostly from three point of views: Geri, Cooper and Crews. Each of them has a very different voice and the switch from one to the other flows well, never with a moment's confusion. As they each pursue their own directions and interests, it becomes clear that somehow they're all headed toward the same central point, but the intrigue and mystery is complicated enough to keep the exact details unclear until the very end. I enjoyed following each of their steps, wondering what was really behind the investigations. And I loved to hate the 'bad guy' because they most certainly deserved it.There's a wonderful new character, Aimee, who adds a fresh breath of air with her positive, cheery attitude. She clashes nicely with Geri creating a fun and much needed lightness to the otherwise serious atmosphere. Unlike the others, she's full of surprises and adds an entire new area of mystery on the side.Like in the first book, there's a nice balance between action and information. Twists and turns are masterfully placed, making it hard to guess what is coming next or where the investigations are headed. And just when it seems that everything is resting on digging up more clues, the heroes find themselves in dangerous situations which even they aren't sure they'll make it through. I didn't want to put this down and was genuinely curious as to where things were headed next.This is an intriguing detective story sprinkled with exciting science fiction elements which leaves one guessing until the very end. I enjoyed the read and can't wait to see what comes next.I received a free copy in exchange for an honest review.

That’s not a bad thing, I actually quite like it By Alysha Terry Warning: This review will contain spoilers for “Pop Travel” the first book in this series and possibly a few spoilers for this book. Nothing major for this book, but just in case that was your warning. It will also be a bit more scattered than usual because I’m just going to talk about things that popped (hehe) out at me in one way or another. :-)Two years after J. L. Cooper helped expose a massive cover up concerning pop travel, he’s still doing the private investigator gig. He and Geri tried dating, and it didn’t work out so well. Geri did manage to get him to move to Atlanta, so he is no longer living in the middle of nowhere. Pop travel is now safe thanks to being offline for a year while Hasan did massive testing and lots of tweaks, but Cooper still prefers to fly rather than pop.By the way, Geri is a bit of a dork in a few spots. That’s not a bad thing, I actually quite like it, but it’s it so randomly out of place with what else we see in her personality. I can easily see how she and Cooper had issues in their relationship. Something that really bothered me about Geri, though, were the mentions of how important she was while Hasan was fixing the transport stations for pop travel. What?! She’s completely useless with anything science-y in this book, but she was vital to fixing pop travel? How does that make any sense. There was one passage that sort of implied she was there more for security purposes, but it wasn’t explicitly stated and other passages implied that she was actually helping fix the transport stations. Besides, even if she was there for security purposes, wouldn’t there be someone better suited for that job? Like actual body guards? I imagine that she is overqualified for that position…Speaking of Hasan, he appears again and he’s as hyper-active and bouncy as ever. We meet newcomer Aimee, and she would likely get smacked if I had to deal with her. Actually, Aimee is probably the character most like me if she also imagines killing people behind her happy smile; she’s optimistic, peppy, and smiles constantly. While there aren’t any indications that she’s also dark on the inside, I’m hoping that she is.By the way, are you familiar with the Three Laws of Robotics? No? Really? You read sci-fi and aren’t familiar with the Three Laws? Bah! Go away! Okay, you don’t actually have to go away, but here. These are the Three Laws.Isaac Asimov’s “Three Laws of Robotics”A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.A robot must obey orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.Why do I bring up the Three Laws? Because I can’t recall coming across too many books with androids that didn’t in some way reference the Laws or have their own versions of “robots can’t hurt humans” in their story. In this book, androids can cause harm, although they aren’t able to make their own decisions. They are completely under the control of whatever human owns them (or has hacked them) and if, for example, Crews tells his androids to take down Wells, they won’t hesitate. I find this an amusing switch from how androids/robots are typically portrayed.Oh, and while it wasn’t really expanded upon much (too much dry history makes for a dull book), I did enjoy the mentions of the Tex-Mex war. It sounds delicious!I give this book 3.5 out of 5 stars because, while I did really like it, things just seemed a bit too contrived at times. Also, there were several errors in this book including some wonky formatting. That’s not to say that I won’t continue reading the series if it continues, because I certainly will and I’m looking forward to the next book, but hopefully the editing tightens up.NOTE: This book was provided to me by the publisher Curiosity Quills in exchange for an honest review.
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. An original and dynamic thriller By Christine Rains FBI Agent Geri Harper is saddled with a new agent who's cute and peppy and totally annoys her. They're given what seems to be a mundane case about DNA sequencing gone wrong, but it leads them to something much larger. It also has Geri crossing paths with her ex, Detective Cooper. Seems their cases might actually be linked. When they uncover possible evidence that a new congressman might be a simulation (an android replica of someone), things turn from dangerous to deadly.A fantastic second book in the thrilling Pop Travel series. The originality of the story and characters hooked me in the first book. We still have the extraordinary writing and view of the not so distant future, and of course, the awesome characters, but this plot had extra oomph to it! It's fast-paced and suspenseful, and barely left me time to catch my breath.I love the dynamics of Geri and Cooper's relationship, even when they're not together! I'm happy to see Hasan back with all his eccentricities, and I particularly liked the new agent, Aimee. She's young yet highly intelligent, and has a few surprises up her sleeve. Literally! As for the villain, Crews, grrr! He's one of those ones I love to hate. Rotten through and through.A glowing 5 stars for Simulation. I can't wait for more from Tara Tyler!
