Professor Siham Yusef has invented a great device, the Eternal Box, with the power to perpetually elongate time and augment space. On the World Orbiting Research Station, Siham allows Selda Demir, a young daughter of scientists, to test it out. And it is only as she comes out of the box to find that no time has passed that she is mesmerized. The Eternal Box takes the world by storm, and Selda Demir, horrified, watches it consume humanity... About the Author Taym Saffar is a Grade 8 student living in Rothesay, New Brunswick, with a profound love for writing. He's cultivated this love for prose and storytelling since he was in Grade 4 when a great teacher encouraged him to write to his heart's content. He's been an avid wordsmith in the years since and has written three novels thus far, one of which - The Lake - he's self-published under the pseudonym "Normaal Slavinski." He also plays the piano, which he finds connects him to his favourite genre, classical music, and imbues him with daily inspiration for stories. Apart from writing and playing music, Taym enjoys running, reading, playing chess, and sports, especially soccer, which he pursues casually. He reads many genres, recently, classics ranging from The Lord of the Rings to Crime and Punishment. Lately, he's begun writing poetry rather than prose, finding himself particularly influenced by the works of William Shakespeare.
