While the others slept, Aidan spent hours each night running sim after sim. Although he was only a twelve-year cadet, he had completed more simulations than any prime— ever.

“You are setting history,” General Estrago told him. “No one has ever made it to the current simulation you are attempting. The other Masters and I are eager to see what comes next.”

So was Aidan.

Book Synopsis: The planet Ethos is at war with a mysterious enemy known as the Splicers. Their only successful defense is the Prime Initiative. All newborns with the compatible genetic code are taken from their families and injected with the Prime Stimulus. Each child that survives the stimulus develops an extraordinary ability and is conscripted into the military for training.

After turning twelve, Aidan is moved to the upper-class at the Mount Fegorio training complex. His special gifts allow him unprecedented success in the virtual training simulations, advancing him further than any prime cadet in history. No one knows what lies after sim 299, not even Director Tuskin, the ruthless and reclusive ruler of their planet. But something, or someone, has been guiding Aidan there. If he can pass the final tests, he may discover the key to ending the Splicer War.

From the imaginative mind of debut author Johan Twiss, I AM SLEEPLESS: Sim 299 is an extraordinary space fiction adventure series that will delight readers of all ages. I AM SLEEPLESS has a clean read rating with the perfect mix of adventure, humor, and mystery in a SciFi Fantasy world that will keep you turning pages through the night.

Clean Rating: There are no scenes with sex, drugs, graphic violence or typical "earth" swearing in this novel. There are numerous fight scenes and action sequences where people are injured and/or die, but it is not graphic and takes place in a virtual simulation. Swear words are fitting to the fictional world of Ethos, such as Tuskin's Fury, Batmonkeys, Holy Hippophants, etc... There are budding romances with kissing involved. There are suspenseful situations with monster alien creatures, fitting of the science fiction genre, and an overall thematic undertone of good v. evil that is suitable for tweens, teens and young adults.

Review Aiden to join the ranks of Harry, Ron and Ender -Southern BelleIf you enjoy sci-fi, don't miss this one. This book captured my attention and imagination quickly. It isn't one of those books that takes the first 100 pages to get hooked, this one grabs you in chapter one. With limited time, I only allowed myself bedtime to read a bit. I found myself really looking forward to reading this each night and really regretted when this book came to an end.A brilliantly written book from beginning to end that will exercise your imagination - Bridget Mattson (Amazon Top 1000 Reviewer) Before you say that there are enough science fiction books on the market, I urge you to give I Am Sleepless: Sim 299 a chance. In the beginning, I was thinking to myself "oh great, another science fiction book", but those thoughts were quickly changed to "wow, what a science fiction book". This book incorporates science fiction elements with fantasy elements and the result is nothing short of spectacular.The author of I Am Sleepless: Sim 299 is either a brilliant author or an insane lunatic for displaying such a vivid imagination. My vote is brilliant due to the way the words jump off the page and into your own imagination.My 11 Year Old Loved It - Mama's Little MinionsThis book was well written, by a very creative mind. The book while not really my cup of tea so to speak was a huge hit with my 11 year old son. He hates to read so imagine my shock & joy when he asked to use my tablet and sat down and read this book! He would get super excited and engrossed in his reading, which leads me to believe this book not only caught his attention but drew him into the story as well.I dare you not to get sucked into the plot - Sandy Toes (Amazon Top 1000 Reviewer)I almost passed on this book, because although I like sci-fi, I'm not normally a fan of YA, especially when the main protagonist is only 12 years old. I'm more drawn to more mature YA, such as Divergent or Hunger Games, which deal with older characters and more adult themes. I was further skeptical, because the synopsis of the book sounded like a rip-off of Ender's Game. The first couple of chapters reinforced that feeling, but then something strange happened, and before I knew it, I began to care about Aiden and his friends. To be sure, there are echoes of Ender's Game, but I dare you not to get sucked into the plot despite yourself.

5 of 6 people found the following review helpful. Worth the read By Cindy Right from the very first chapter this book has you hooked. I did go back and read the first chapter twice to get a better understanding of the primes. Throughout the book there was levels of mysteries, and intrigue. You will not want to put it down as the book leaves you wanting to find out what happens next. It sweets you to a magical place much like Narnia, Harry Potter, Divergent, and so many other wonderful book take you. It was so descriptive that I could see exactly everything playing out in my head, like a movie. It is something that is easy enough for young kids to comprehend and yet entertaining enough for adults of all ages to enjoy. The ways the prime system works is quite innovative, and the technology that is described in this story makes you amazed at the imagination of the human mind. Would recommend it to anyone.

An excellent book about futuristic nerds, relationships, preparing for battles against unknown enemies, and spiritual awakenings By John WilliamsSon 2100 I am reviewing this book based on reading the paperback edition of the book. The author mailed me an autographed copy of the book with NO obligation on my part. I do not know the author, but I feel like I know him through his characters.REVIEWEvery 12-year-old imagines being able to get back at the big kids at school when he is a lowly plebe. Aidan is 12 years old, and is his universe's version of a Nerd. He was taken away from his parents practically as soon as he was born, and he has no idea who they were. He was placed into a "family" of 12 kids, all the same age, but before the book starts, 9 of those kids have died, and there are only three left. They call each other brothers and sister.Aidan is a Prime, a child with special powers that came upon him as the result of the "Prime Stimulus" which is an injection given to any baby whose genetic code is compatible with the stimulus. Unfortunately, each Prime has some kind of defect. Aidan's main defect is the inability to sleep, thus the title of the book.Enough of an introduction. This book is delightful. With hours of time not available to his mates, Aidan has been very successful playing his world's equivalent of video games, playing a virtual reality simulation of many levels in which, if you are hurt or killed, you feel it as if it had happened to you in real life, but you wake up back in real life. Aidan is so good that he can beat the 16-year-olds in the simulations.The author uses many examples of word play, using different meanings for the same phrase, which is a nice way to remind young readers how flexible our English language is. For example, on page 124, we read,>Here's another example of wordplay from page 138:>Humor also abounds, On page 40, one character tells another,>Their world is filled with combination animals, and each chapter is preceded by a picture of one of those animals, some rather strange combinations that could not happen in nature, others that theoretically could happen but don't; bearcat, dragleon, cobramoth, crocobull, and many more. These many animals give the author a chance to introduce his readers to old expressions in new settings. On page 175, we see:>One of the hallmarks of an excellent book to me are the ones that give me spiritual inspiration. Let me finish my review by sharing two passages that inspire me, and what they mean to me:page 234:>Meaning to me? Each of us have personal powers and abilities that we have received from "infinity" and even if we don't yet know how to use them in real life, they are a part of us, they are inside us.page 244:>Meaning to me? A few years ago, I had a dream in which I found myself flying through the air in a strange place, and I called out, "Is this death? If so, I'm ready!" When I was younger, I was scared of activities that could lead to death. Not only was I afraid of going to Vietnam, I was afraid of the Peace Corps because I didn't know what to expect.Just as this book touched my awareness, these characters expand their awareness as they learn to work together, even the 12 and the 16's learning to work together as they come closer to their destiny, and approach and learn about the rebellions that are taking place in the outside world from which they have been shielded all their life.CONCLUSIONThis is an excellent book, not just for the youth audience that it is written for, but for adults. I'm 64 and I loved reading this book. It is book one in a three book series, and I am definitely planning to read the other books when they come out.I highly recommend this book.

Kids being changed into extra-human non humans to fight a war. Interesting that their colors identify their special power, This one is kind of crazy, very entertaining with super technology and personalities. Ends better than it starts. This was not a "read to the end" type book for me. I am glad I finished it.
