Beskrivelse
Some are born to save the world. Most of us just dream about it.
But what makes a hero?
Is a hero someone who puts on a mask and costume and rushes to the rescue? Is a hero someone who lands a crippled airplane? Is a hero someone who finds a cure to a wasting disease? Is a hero someone who uses their supernatural powers to help others? Is a hero someone who loves another person so much they put their needs ahead of their own? Is a hero someone who stops in the hustle and bustle of life just to listen to those who no longer have a voice?
Heroes comes in all shapes, sizes, and personas. And, if they survive long enough, they might even reach a point where the desire to be a hero never dies, but the body is no longer able to perform those heroic feats. Such is the case in the lead story: "Some Are Born to Save the World" which was inspired by the RUSH song "Losing It."
This collection includes seven stories that explore heroes and heroic activities.
