New marketing campaign is set for ‘REAP 23’
SALT LAKE CITY, Utah – J J Perry returns to the publishing scene with the release of “REAP 23” (published by Xlibris in June 2017). Set for a new marketing campaign, the novel charts an epic adventure that spans thousands of years from one planet to another.
The 23rd and longest mission of the Repopulation, Expansion, and Annexation Program (REAP) is staffed by four couples to confirm a habitable planet and then to populate it. Thousands of years later, the attempt was forgotten except by a cult. Porliche, a graduate student, finds lost information of this long-forgotten program and evidence that the bunker built at its inception to receive the messages both exists and has messages from the stellar-bound saints stored within. What she finds changes her world.
A thought-provoking psychological thriller, “REAP 23” covers the rigors of space travel, of the claustrophobic stresses on disparate crewmembers, and the weakness and heroism of humanity.
“(I was) tired of fantasies of space travel. I wanted a story that is consistent with scientific fact and chronicled space travel,” Perry shares, on his inspiration in penning the book. “It has little fantasy and travel is grounded on current space science and engineering.”
More than entertainment, “REAP 23” also imparts to readers an insight into human psychology and inspires them to gain a better understanding of physics.
