Rising Stars: Born in Fire

This is the story of how we came to be. Of what happened to us, and to those we knew, and loved, and fought. Sixty years. One hundred and thirteen people born with the power. The story of the world we touched. And all the places where the world touched us. And the terror and the beauty and the death that happened in the spaces in-between... Over twenty years ago, a comet struck the Earth just outside the town of Pederson, Illinois. There were 113 children in utero when the flash hit, and every one of them was affected, gaining extraordinary super-powers as they grew older. The people of the world, initially worried by what the children might become when they reached adulthood, now fear what they will do with the powers they've gained-and who might suffer should the rising stars start to think they could run the world better...
