    Antigravity Heroes is an exciting good-versus-evil battle between a brother-sister superhero team and the evil Mephisto. It is book #3 in the “Wanted: Superheroes” series. 
    In previous stories, our heroes, Eddie and Samantha Hertz, faced earthquakes and hypnotized zombie-like people. What could be worse? 
    Birds. Yes, birds. And lots of them. Eagles, hawks, owls, herons, and more. The villain Mephisto has hypnotized tens of thousands of them to do his evil bidding. 
    The situation gets even stranger. Our heroes have to battle gravity itself. Mephisto has stolen antigravity belts that allow him to fly. But the belts have a flaw, and he tries to force Eddie to perfect them. In the meantime, Mephisto uses the hypnotized birds to paralyze the city while he steals millions of dollars. 
    Against all odds, Eddie and Samantha, their mother, their Uncle Milligan, the new Damocles, and the eccentric Dr. Gilbert G. Godwin, work together to battle the hypnotized birds and their controlling master. 
    As usual, the entire world is in danger, and only the Hertz heroes can save it.

    It is the spring of 1861, and the serenity of Smith County, Mississippi, has been shattered by Abraham Lincoln’s declaration of war on the South. Young and old are taking up arms and marching off to war. But not ten-year-old Frank Russell. Although he is eager to enlist in the Confederate army, he is not allowed. He is too young, too skinny, too weak. After all, he’s just “Shanks,” the baby of the Russell family. War has a way of taking things away from a person, mercilessly. And this war takes from Frank a mighty sum. It’s nabbed his Pa and older brother. It’s stolen his grandfather, his grandmother. It has robbed Frank of a simpler way of life, food, his boyhood. And gone are his idealistic dreams of heroic battles and hard-fought victories. Now all that replaces those images are questions: Will I ever see my father and brother again? Why are we fighting this war? Are we fighting for the wrong reasons? Will things ever be the same around here?
