APPEARING LIVE AT THE FINAL TEST is an intense hybrid of contemporary real-world drama and mythic science fiction about a black newsstand operator, his wife and three neighbors in a Brooklyn-like neighborhood, whose lives take a cosmic punch from a nuclear bomb threat that launches them on an eerie and spellbinding journey. "APPEARING LIVE AT THE FINAL TEST is an extremely well-written novel--a pleasure to read, a wild ride of depression at some points, exhilaration at others. John Teton has raised some serious concerns regarding the fate of civilizations, and our consciousness is raised with this thought-provoking work." Eric Chaisson, Author, COSMIC EVOLUTION Professor of Astronomy and Physics, Tufts University Director, Wright Center for Science Education "APPEARING LIVE AT THE FINAL TEST is a genre-breaking story unlike any other. Its scenes range from a scarily realistic depiction of an urban nuclear event to mind-stretching intergalactic travel,;all related in the author's savvy, wisecracking, original and sometimes hilarious hyperbolic voice." Craig A. Lambert, Ph.D.; Deputy Editor, HARVARD MAGAZINE Mr. Teton gives fictionalized treatment to "cosmic evolution," a complex and controversial theory which holds that evolution affects not just life on Earth, but extends back to the birth of the universe and continues to include changes in human civilization, culture, technology and beyond. The story benefits from a grounding in everyday human fears and troubles, along with mind-blowing scenes which venture into questions about creation and the role of human beings in it. The novel is chock-full of information about stars and the planets, and yet he clearly knows a thing or two about teenagers, old folks, sailing, marine biology, marriage, love, pop culture, terrorism, religious extremists and the media.

UPSURGE is a contemporary drama with elements of psychological fantasy and science fiction narrated by its three principal characters: Tyler Fox, a visionary scientist, his wife Gwen, a pregnant former actress and school teacher, and their teenaged daughter, Leanna, whose dreams and fears about the worlds future cause her to disappear to a hidden, fantastic, and frightening place. John Tetons new novel, UPSURGEwhich continues the terrifying, yet hopeful, saga begun in his first book, APPEARING LIVE AT THE FINAL TESTis both a wholly original science fiction drama of unparalleled vision and a blueprint for creating a better and more humane future for the generations to come. Lucille Lang Day, author of INFINITES: Poems and WILD ONE: Poems UPSURGE is a great book that will show readers that you are never too young or too old to take action." Paul Rivas, KPFK-FM, Los Angeles UPSURGE, like its predecessor, APPEARING LIVE AT THE FINAL TEST, proves again that literary realism can hold its own when interwoven with fantasy elements, even those as wild and original as those in these books. With their different times and settings, a read of either novel alone is wholly rewarding, yet the subtle interconnections revealed by completing the set adds a dimension of awe to each. Debo Kotun, Author, ABIKU "A theme running through both novels is wonder at the universe and the potential for human beings to influence the world for good." SANTA BARBARA NEWS-PRESS
