PERCIVIOUS INSOMNIA RE-RELEASE IS AVAILABLE NOW IN HARDCOVER, PAPERBACK, EBOOK and AUDIOBOOK EXCLUSIVE TO AUDIBLE!
From Black Mirror to The Handmaid’s Tale, there’s no shortage of glorified dystopia in today’s entertainment. But what if instead of dwelling on our deepest fears, we were to shift our cultural lens to focus on the possibility of a more perfect world? How would a kinder, more intelligent evolution of humankind play out? What if altruism were to supersede narcissism and become the driving force of society?
An exhilarating medical thriller with a sci-fi edge, Percivious Insomnia by husband-and-wife author duo JJ and AJ Cook, MD debuted in August 2020 to critical acclaim and a passionate genre-defying fanbase. Centered on an ominous and otherworldly mystery that could completely unravel civilization as we know it — an insomnia pandemic with no discernible cause, or solution — “the ultimate in altruism is what lives at the heart of the Percivious trilogy,” share JJ & AJ of their inspiration to pen this series. “Something pure that has been lost will now be found in a new version of our own evolution.”
Drawing on AJ’s direct experience as a medical doctor and pediatric surgeon and JJ’s background in marketing and across a range of industries, giving insight and depth to characters spanning an array of disciplines, ages, countries, and cultures, the “Percivious” trilogy sets a unique and original course for fiction of the future, and paints a timely, prescient portrait of today’s globalized society… and what may exist beyond the realm of our current understanding.
Percivious Insomnia has been reissued with a gorgeous, collectible new cover in anticipation of the release of Book #2, Percivious Origins, which will be released on April 5, 2022.
