This book is written for age 14 and up and may be considered inappropriate for children due to strong language, violence, and adult themes.
An anthology of novellas by Wayland Smith, Dara Hannon, and Harry Heckel.
HeroNet Files Vol. 1 contains three novellas about new superheroes and how they learn to come to grips with their powers and responsibilities. And each other.
In the first novella, Argent and The Cobalt Rose by Wayland Smith, Laura tries to start her career as the Cobalt Rose and winds up with the mysterious loner, Argent, as a mentor. Argent discovers that he has at least as much to learn about life from her as she has to learn about heroing from him.
In Murphy's Hero by Dara Hannon, Tiger Iron of the world-famous superteam, the Wardens, must investigate a questionable new hero, Murphy, who may be stealing money from the drug dealers she stops.
Finally, in Hidden Strengths by Harry Heckel, when Scott develops his own powers, he joins an underground superhuman fighting league and finds himself losing control of his life. Meanwhile, the gladiatrix Diamond decides that he is her hope to escape the brutal world of powered combat.

Show moreWayland Smith is the pen name for a native Texan who has lived in Massachusetts, New York, Washington DC, and presently makes his home in Virginia. His rather unlikely list of jobs includes private investigator, comic book shop owner, ring crew for a circus (then he ran away from the circus and joined home), deputy sheriff, and freelance stagehand. Wayland is a four time participant in, and survivor of, NaNoWriMo, having made the 50,000 word goal each time. A black belt in shao lin kung fu, he is also a fan of comic books, reading, writing, and various computer games (I'll shut Civ down in one more turn. Really). He lives with a beautiful woman who was crazy enough to marry him, and a goofy dog with a fondness for peanut butter and white wine. He has previously published In My Brother's Name with Blue Oranda Publishing.
Dara Hannon lives in the US with her two cats. When relaxing, she enjoys reading, doing crafts and MMORPGs. She admits to being a coffee addict who can't stand the taste of espresso. She is also the author of Broken Faith, published by Blue Oranda Publishing.
Harry Heckel has published roleplaying games and fiction for over two decades, including several books for White Wolf Game Studio. He co-authored two novels for Black Library under the pen name "Lee Lightner," Sons of Fenris and Wolf's Honour, now collected in the Space Wolf Omnibus, Vol.2. His previous work for Blue Oranda Publishing includes The Krueger Chronicles: Souls of the Everwood (Book 1) and Balefire and Brimstone (Book 2) and Book 1 of The Crimson Hawks Adventures: In the Service of the King.
