Hi Everyone,
The Prologue and Part One of my book, Sapien Loop: Frozen in Time, have been published on my 
The Prologue provides a brief summary of the six years between the end of the previous book and the start of the new book.
Part One focuses on the discovery of the frozen humanoids that were introduced in the epilogue of the previous book. Altogether eleven were discovered, each in different chambers. Each chamber was connected to a network of tunnels that went deep into the ground.
Denise and Eugene begin an expediture to explore the tunnels. This expedition is cut short when the frozen humanoid in the chamber off the tunnels they were exploring goes missing. This prompts Denise and Orcilla to defrost the other ten humanoids to find out more about their world.
Orcilla also decides they need to defrost Lily, who was previously frozen by Pardi. Lily is the only one who has the knowledge to translate ancient documents left behind inside the chambers. These documents reveal why these humanoids believe they needed to be frozen in time.
Sapien Loop 2 - Prologue: Time Moves On
Six years had passed since the end of the previous book. Times were tough in the Downs Region. The residents were plagued with illness, and most were infertile. The population was beginning to crash, and it appeared to be getting worse. Orcilla, Daily, and Yassmay were desperately trying to find a cure. Meanwhile, Denise continued her exploration of the hidden locations.

Sapien Loop 2 - Chapter 5: We Need Answers
Denise, Eugene, and Louis return to Downs to explain what had happened to Orcilla. They decided they needed to find answers. To do so would involve taking action they would normally avoid. Orcilla also strongly believes the frozen humanoids are an ancient breed of Linap.

Yassmay continues studying the Linap. Yassme visits Lily. Yassme and Lily begin to bond as Lily pays attention to Yassme’s accomplishments. Yassme had become distant from her sister, who had dedicated herself to helping Orcilla find a cure. This had caused a rift between the two of them.
Sapien Loop 2 - Chapter 12: Working Together
There remained three more frozen Linap. Orcilla could no longer make the journey as she had reduced her medication again. She assigned Denise, Daily, and Freddy to defrost the remaining Linap.

Jennifer has some success extracting memories from the Linap they had taken. It appears he has a shocking and disturbing past. Yassmay also finds out about the age of X. It appears he had been alive around the time the Linap were frozen. Yassme and Colin play some videos they had discovered in a vault in the Capital Region to the Linap. The videos appear to bring everyone together.
I have published an ebook on Amazon; it is titled ‘Sapien Loop: End of an Era’. The book is fiction. I do not normally write fiction. However, I felt it was appropriate considering what is happening in the world today. Freedom is the most important thing we have, but we are gradually losing it. I have covered this in many of my posts.
In the story, most citizens do not understand the concept of freedom because they have never really experienced it. In essence, the story is about an alien world that might represent our not-so-distant future. There are many other elements to the story that are an abstract and exaggerated version of our reality. I believe this book to be an important read, and I believe it has the potential to change the way you think.
This story is based on the fictional planet Sapia and its sole country, Sapey. Sapey is portrayed as a form of utopia for all its citizens. No poverty. No war. Almost no crime. Opportunities for all.
This was enough for most citizens, but not all. In one of the small regions, some of the citizens had become discontent. They felt something important was missing in their lives. Their discontent did not go unnoticed. Some of the Sapey elite wanted to weaponise this discontent to gain more power. This created more chaos than they anticipated. This led to further widespread social unrest.
On top of the chaos, ambition and greed provoked another enemy. This enemy was on a mission to settle both new and old scores.
If you want to buy a copy of the book, below are links to the relevant Amazon websites for each country it is available in. The book is priced at approximately US$5.08.
