Young teens enjoy reading about superheroes and often imagine themselves as a hero. Author Elias R Garcia taps into this genre in "The Mighty Chronicles: Rise of Heroes".  "Rise of Heroes" is the first book in the newest series of adventure-packed, science fiction/ fantasy genre written for the middle school independent reader and for young adults.  Fascinating contemporary cover art immediately grabs the readers' imagination and attention.

Readers who relate to stories of superheroes such as Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, and other comic book and movie heroes often wish to have incredible, unique abilities without thinking about the challenges of training to help others and how to stop criminals. This delightful story explores the lives of three brothers, Hudson, Ethan, and Charles, who were born to parents with extraordinary superpowers.  The young boys have only begun training in using their specific powers but are far from proficient when challenged with a life-changing tragedy. How can they follow in their parents' footsteps?

"Rise of Heroes" is set in Twilight City, a fictional town in a parallel world where ordinary citizens are safeguarded by extraordinary heroes against external threats. For years, a team of four remarkable individuals stood as the city's protectors, their unique abilities working in harmony to keep Twilight City safe. However, a devastating calamity tore the team apart, causing division and weakening their ability to defend the city.

As the city faces its gravest danger yet, a cunning supervillain emerges, orchestrating chaos with his loyal followers. This villain, bold and ruthless, kidnaps the parents of three young and gifted boys, forcing them to step up as the city's last hope. Each of these boys possesses unique abilities, but they have yet to learn how to work together as a team. Their mission is clear: rescue their parents and prevent the city's destruction.

To succeed, they seek guidance from Avalon, a retired superhero known for his wisdom and past triumphs. Under his mentorship, the trio learns to harness their individual strengths, trust one another, and rise to the challenge. Along their journey, they face terrifying foes, endure harrowing trials, and engage in intense battles that test their courage and determination.

Through their struggles and growth, the boys begin to understand the true meaning of teamwork. Their distinct personalities and talents are brought into focus, allowing readers to connect with each of them as individuals while seeing how their differences combine to create a powerful, unified team. Twilight City's fate hangs in the balance as these young heroes rise to meet their destiny, discovering their potential and the strength that comes from standing together.

This delightful tale weaves together themes of family dynamics, coming of age, and self-discovery, creating a story that resonates with readers of all ages. The narrative explores the pros and cons of being a hero, leaving a lasting impression on the audience about the complexities of responsibility and courage. Through the brothers' interactions, their evolving relationship with an old alcoholic mentor, and their careful planning and execution of a critical mission, readers are drawn into a rich and engaging world that feels relatable yet extraordinary. The story is packed with moments of tension, humor, and heartfelt emotion, making it a truly captivating read. The conclusion leaves the reader eagerly anticipating what lies ahead for these three unique superheroes, as it hints at future challenges and adventures. With its compelling characters and thoughtful storytelling, this saga sets the stage for what promises to be an exciting series of sequels.

About Elias Garcia


Elias Ricardo Garcia, a 21-year-old autistic writer from New Jersey, has nurtured a lifelong passion for storytelling. Growing up, he often felt like an outsider due to his special needs, but writing became his refuge—a space where he could express himself freely and feel truly at home. Whether scribbling ideas in countless notebooks or envisioning extraordinary worlds, storytelling offered him comfort and purpose.

Elias has always been captivated by superheroes, particularly those who, like him, grappled with feeling different. Their journeys deeply resonated with him and inspired his dream of creating a superhero of his own. Over the years, he worked on various projects, but none ever seemed to capture the vision he had in mind.

That all changed when he turned 18. Everything began to fall into place as he started writing a pilot script, which eventually transformed into his debut book, The Mighty Chronicles: Rise of Heroes. Completing the novel became a transformative experience, requiring two years of dedication, persistence, and growth to bring his story to life.
