A Breakthrough Opening To Escalation.

It's my pleasure to reveal the reveal of the cover reveal of Stephen Tremp's final instalment in his, "The Adventures of Chase Manhattan", trilogy.  Besides, this way, I get out of doing one of my eagerly anticipated postings.  So, just below this sentence you will notice a photograph of the cover art for Stephen's cover reveal.
Here it is.  The cover reveal for, "ESCALATION  The Adventures of Chase Manhattan."  The cover was designed by his nephew,  Jeremy Tremp .  Jeremy also did the cover art for, "Breakthrough" and "Opening."  

 Stephen is hoping to have the book released by the end of October.

Escalation Synopsis: 
“I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones” - Albert Einstein  

In Escalation, the final installment to Stephen Tremp’s Breakthrough Trilogy, a seemingly innocent discovery in Einstein-Rosen Bridges, or wormholes, becomes a Pandora’s Box—opening doors to other unexpected and unpredictable realities such as parallel universes, time/space travel, and an evil hitchhiker from another dimension. 
Chase Manhattan has survived attempts on his life from numerous sources in his effort to destroy the technology. But he is far from safe. Now Chase and his comrades must not only break world renowned physicist Professor Nicholas Fischer out of prison a second time, but also smuggle him across hostile borders in Europe and the Middle East to prevent events threatening to spiral into World War III. 
At stake: an end to Western civilization as we know it. The result: an epic clash where science and the supernatural take center stage, vying for mankind’s destiny. The setting is global as the world divides into an East vs. West climactic battle. The action is swift, adrenaline-charged, and non-stop. Unending twists and turns will keep the reader turning pages and wanting more. 
Together, Breakthrough, Opening, and Escalation follow the lives of the unlikely participants from innocence to a coming of age through sacrifice, betrayal, passion, lust, unconditional love, and hope. Escalation will appeal to fans of modern-day science fiction, action, and horror. 

Escalation Short Synopsis:

Other Blurbs: 
ESCALATION: an epic clash where science and the supernatural take center stage for mankind’s destiny. The setting is global and the adrenaline-charged action is non-stop. 
ESCALATION is cued from current world events and scientific breakthroughs. Great cover, plot, editing, and reviews. Wormholes too! 
ESCALATION speaks to our generation with its technological breakthroughs and struggle to use for good or for evil.

    Thanks for the shout out! I like looking at what people think is reality but just can't quite prove it, and using that in my books. Its almost too easy.

      Ah Stephen,

      Glad to shout out or scream out, even. Now then, my comment to you may or may not be really here. It depends if you wish to perceive it here in your own unique reality or unreality. One man's table is another man's chair.

    I wish Stephen well, but I don't think I would ever read a book in which the major character's name is Chase Manhattan. It would keep getting in the way of my concentration.

      Hey rwp,

      Now then, if the major character's name was Punxsutawney Phil, that might make all the difference.

    I've been seeing Stephen's teases about the cover reveal on Facebook, so it's fun to finally see the real thing. And I really like the concept of science and the supernatural sharing a stage.

    I *just* mentioned this on Meradeth's blog, but it must be an awesome feeling to finish a series and see it all come to fruition.... I can only hope and wait with bated breath.

    Hello, by the way, Dear Sir Gazza.... and would you happen to have a mint?

      Mr, Red Shoes dude,

      You can bank on a name like that.

      I watch Coronation Street. Does that mean anything to you?

      HI Robyn,

      Yes, I love revealing covers and the fitted sheets that never fit. I hate fitted sheets that don't fit.

      Stephen is a nice man and yes, another one of my adoring fans. Ahem, where are you, Stephen?

      Glad you like my new head, um header!

      Smiling away, my friend, smiling away....

      Hugs back atcha'!

    Hi Gary - that's great you're supporting Stephen - he's been educating us so much about that inter-galactic space out there (or is that Alex too?!) ... but I love the space stuff .. and I did enjoy Stephen's first book Breakthrough .. now I need to get reading ..

    Cheers - your cold air has reached us!! Hilary

      Hi Hilary,

      Thanks and this way, it gets me out of doing one of my um, must-read postings. I think both Stephen and Alex are taking some inter-galactic laxative.

      Oh my and guess who hasn't had central heating for three weeks...yikes and I'm getting compensated.

    Congratulations! Nice cover, good luck with the book.
    On another note, Gary, did you hear who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature today? The Canadian writer, Alice Munro. (I happened to write about her three weeks ago).

      Hi Julia,

      I'm sure Stephen will appreciate your kind words.

      Ah yes, I was delighted for Alice Munro. Of course, the secret is that I helped her. Yes, that was me kidding. Timely that you wrote about her, Julia.
