By Jeffery Martin Botzenhart

Published by Solstice Publishing

What if a hero is someone who's not real? For Cole Corbett, the comic book character Space Ranger Logan is everything Cole wants to be, strong, brave, and smart. As the hero in the Space Ranger Logan comic book series, with each issue detailing heroic battles fought against the Martians plotting to destroy the Earth, Cole longs for such an adventurous life. In reality, he lives lonely days in his small rural Texas hometown.

On the night of his eighteenth birthday, near midnight a stray lightning strike from a distant thunderstorm causes a bluish electrical charge that lures Cole to follow it into town. Stopping at the Five and Dime Store, the bluish electrical charge disappears, or so it seems.

In a moment of reliving a cherished memory from his childhood, Cole's yearnings for adventure become his reality. Transported to a place beyond his wildest imagination, he meets a young woman named Greyline who captures his heart. Thinking that he had finally found a place to call home, an unexpected visitor disrupts their serenity and begs for help. Danger and adventure await on the Martian frontier where a boy from rural Texas will become a Five and Dime Store Space Ranger.
