John Rite Magician () von Robin R. Davis

Nothing extraordinary has ever happened to John Rite. He is not an athlete; he is a magician. But in high school, if you are not an athlete, everyone knows you are nothing. John knows this. That is why he bursts into the back door of his home shouting, Guess what, Mom? I won the one-hundred-yard dash. Suddenly, several extraordinary events happen. He has won the one-hundred-yard dash at school. He escapes death in a shark attack while surfing. During a magic show, he tries to impress a cute high school girl, Becky, with magic powers, and with powers he receives from beings from the fifth dimension, a world called Nexxon. Becky is the sister of Johns best friend, Sam. She is dating the high school quarterback, Frank Stephens. John does impress her, which makes Frank furious. Later, Becky gives John a slap one minute and a very passionate kiss the next. John, Becky, and Sam are thrown together unexpectedly in Hong Kong. They learn of a plot to kill the United States president, vice president and congress. A Communist youth group, the YFC, is hatching the plot. Shockingly, the head of the group is Frank Stephens. John, Becky, and Sam use their wits and receive help from Nexxonians to thwart the plot. It is a fight to the death.
