Synopsis

APPEARING LIVE AT THE FINAL TEST is an extremely well-written novela 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 EvolutionProfessor of Astronomy and Physics, Tufts UniversityDirector, Wright Center for Science EducationAPPEARING 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 a genre-breaking story unlike any other. Its scenes range from a scarily realistic depiction of an urban nuclear event to mind-stretching intergalactic travelall related in the authors savvy, wisecracking, original and sometimes hilarious hyperbolic voice.Craig A. Lambert, Ph.D.; Deputy Editor, Harvard Magazine
