About the Book

Book I of the Telefax Trilogy, The Telefax Box, ended with the first fully functional machine, capable of reproduction, mating with a person. Is this a Frankenstein monster? Book II, Aurora Rising, opens with the product of that mating; Aurora, the first half-machine. Or is she the first half being? What are the consequences of Frankenstein reproducing? Is the galaxy ready for this? The galaxy's anti-machine contingent known as Samerac contains a pro-machine element isolated within it known as Dodis. When the Dodis adopt the first half-machine/half-being as their titular leader, how will the galaxy react? Into all of this appears a refugee from civilization; Yon who has fled the galaxy's mainstream laboratory culture to live the natural life of a Samerac. Yon's gene pool improbably combines Samerac and Zanton, the galaxy's leading race and deeply resented by most Samerac.
About the Author: Toni Seger has been a professional writer for over 40 years. Her many interests are evident in her fiction, theater, film work and other writing. Toni Seger has been a professional writer more than 40 years. Her many interests are evident in her novels, plays, film work and other writing. Her plays receive raves whenever they're performed and have been staged in Portland, Maine, New York City, London and cable television. For the last decade, Seger has been a multi-media artist recording professional interpretations of poetry by Timothy Victor Richardson and interpreted by Jeff Flint as well as producing films on DVD inspired by Richardson's work. An award winning film maker, her film 'The Force of Poetry', is a reading and lecture on the meaning, mechanics and significance of poetry. In its endorsement, Maine Public Broadcasting wrote: "The effect is to inject life and heartbeat into what is often thought of as an inert, hard-to-read art form, and the result is educational and entertaining." A former art dealer and proponent of the arts in all forms, Seger is the founder of the Western Maine Cultural Alliance using her extensive background in cultural marketing to open opportunities for artists in the rural scenic landscape she loves. Aurora Rising is the second in a series of three novels satirizing the pros and cons of our modern mechanized world. People's numerical identification defines their capability, gene pools determine career placement, research laboratories offer the most prestigious professions and with ubiquitous spy technology, privacy is virtually non-existent. The consequences of creating a modern Frankenstein in the first book, The Telefax Box, ripple throughout the last two books of the trilogy.
