Chapters Square One

 

 

 

The Transporting Device is a compelling Science-Fiction story about a university professor who invents a device which creates instantaneous travel from a person’s current location to any desired destination in the world without airport hassles.

Imagine something that can instantly transfer you to wherever you desire to go, as long as the locale’s data is stored inside the device.  That’s the jumping-off point of a self-published sci-fi short story, The Transporting Device, written by
Mississauga resident Joseph A. Monachino.

 

Proof of purchase required from any Indigo, Chapters or Coles location.
