Guys, girls, robots, teleportation and a deeper understanding of Tarzan's thought process when he first met another human being. Spaceships, space battles, space pirates - really anything that's ever been in a science fiction story is mashed-up, along with just the right amount of humor and wit, and served with a liberal amount of alcohol throughout. All this for your reading pleasure. Teleport This is a fast-paced, science fiction adventure without the extra heavy baggage found in hardcore space operas or the ultra-wackiness found in satirical sci-fi novels. The story starts off in a contemporary Earth setting, add in a couple guys and a girl, turn on the teleport and away they go, tripping and stumbling into and across a larger universe. As they travel about, our heroes become hopelessly entangled in the universal forces of confusion, desperately trying to find their way back to Earth in one piece while possibly purchasing a working lightsaber or two along the way. Female androids are added into the mix, abstract consciousness is discovered in a soup bowl, late night cable movies are discussed and, of course in the end, insane theories win out. So let's go and don't forget the tequila and chips.
