The R.E.M. Project (The Ocula Series, Book 2) is available now in paperback. Kindle eBook to be released April 17th. Preorder now!

Dear readers,

I’m excited to announce the sequel to 2016’s The R.E.M. Effect has finally hit the Amazon shelves! (Along with a special giveaway for readers who make it to the bottom of this email.)

Set six months after the events of the first book in The Ocula Series, The R.E.M. Project picks up right where we left off:

  • The original outliers are in hiding and on the run.

 

  • Asteria Pharmaceuticals has had free rein to disperse their revolutionary genome-inhibiting medication to the masses.

 

  • And the new Director of the CIA is determined to take Ocula off the streets—even if it means rebooting a dangerous project she swore she would eliminate for good.

On a personal note, I’m really excited to share this book with my loyal readers (and, with any luck, a few new recruits). Your input for The R.E.M. Effect was invaluable to me, and I made it a point to address the main recurrent issues readers had with the first book.

In other words, a lot of your questions from the first book will be answered here. I’ve still got a trilogy planned, with every story arc wrapping up in a nice (if not eerie) little package by the third and final installment. But, I think you’ll be very satisfied with the arcs completed in Book 2.

Now, I promised something special for those who made it to the end of this message, and I would hate to disappoint. I mentioned the Kindle version is available for preorder until the April 17th release date, so . . .

The first ten people who preorder the Kindle version here will receive a complementary autographed paperback copy of The R.E.M. Project. Just shoot me a screenshot of the ebook order receipt, along with your name, mailing address, and any personalized message you’d like me to include in your paperback, and I’ll get a signed copy to you ASAP. (Please allow up to 14 days for delivery.)

And as always, any and all customer reviews left on Amazon and Goodreads help TREMENDOUSLY!

Well, I know that was a long-winded post, but I’ve been waiting a long time to touch base with my readers. I think you’ll find the sequel moves much faster, with a few new characters to help move the storyline closer to its conclusion.

Thanks for your interest in The Ocula Series, your feedback, and your continued support. Feel free to drop me a line in the comments below. Talk to you soon!

It’s been a long time coming, but the long-awaited sequel to The R.E.M. Effect is almost here. To celebrate the upcoming release of The R.E.M. Project (slated for the 2017 holiday season) I’m giving away the first installment in the trilogy, The R.E.M. Effect, FREE for Kindle starting today through Friday, November 17th.

They thought Big Pharma had created the perfect sleeping pill. A handful of patients would disagree.

What can I expect from the upcoming sequel, The R.E.M. Project?

If you’re reading this email, then odds are you’ve already checked out The R.E.M. Effect. If so, then I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for supporting a little ‘ole indie author like me.

I had a blast writing the first installment in a three-part series I’ve had planned for years now, and I certainly don’t want to let any readers down.

That being said, here’s a few questions you can count on being answered in The R.E.M. Project:

  • Who drugged Paul? 
  • Is Alex dead or alive? 
  • What’s the deal with the Poás Volcano eruption? 

Okay, so you’ll have to wait for the third and final installment for that last one to be answered. But, you can count on most of the loose ends from The R.E.M. Effect to be tied up by the end of The R.E.M. Project.

So if you enjoyed The R.E.M. Effect, please feel free to forward this link to friends and family to spread the word. After all, word of mouth is the best way to help out indie authors like me.

The Kindle version of The R.E.M. Effect will be available to download FOR FREE on Amazon now through Friday, November 17th. 

As always, feel free to give me a shout anytime at john@jmlanham.com with any feedback, comments, or opinions. I love talking shop, and will do my best to address every message sent my way. Take care, and thanks for your unwavering support!
