About this book: HERO WITHIN is an all-ages tale of bravery and heroism set against a modern day backdrop of teenaged reality and pre-adult imagination where a group of small town kids inadvertently become the fictional heroes they have admired from the pages of their favorite comic book series. Utilizing “Smart phones” and “Apps”, real world technology as a core part of the story, something that every teenager can not only relate to, but relate with, HERO WITHIN is a 21st century story that speaks to multiple generations, capturing the limitless imagination of comic books, while grounding it in the ever-spinning fabric of reality. Filled with heroes, villains, action, adventure, and important life lessons that range from “discover your true potential” to “it doesn’t take a hero to be a hero,” HERO WITHIN is the type of series that everyone will enjoy, discovering story threads that not only resonate in their own lives, but in the lives of those characters that they once believed (or still believe) that they could one day be.
