Category: Fiction

In California a young man slices through the sky in a red streak. In Virginia a young girl builds an android in her garage that can carry her to school. In Louisiana a woman bursts into flames. In a small town in Indiana, an entire stadium is overwhelmed with emotion thanks to one man. And in an apartment in New York, two men attempt to make contact with all of them via a list they shouldn?t have. All over the country individuals are exposing strange and wonderful abilities to a world that may not be seeing such activity for the first time. Everyone wants a piece of their attention and assistance but they will decide for themselves what their fate will be. Misusing their power is not an option when an unexpected and deadly adversary alters the course of their lives forever. Patterns & Choices, the first Extra Heroes novel, takes the super-hero genre out of its typical comic book element and explores themes of heroism and responsibility through surprising realism and a thoughtful, original cast of characters. Extra Heroes: Patterns & Choices is a novel for many ages (13+) by Dean Browell.
