For while Lander offers a full range of courses to nearly all students, it also offers a small number of specialty classes to a very select few. Lander is home to the Hero Certification Program, a curriculum designed to develop students with superhuman capabilities, commonly known as Supers, into official Heroes.

A battalion of Serbs has been senselessly murdered in Kosovo, and the Green Berets stand accused. Now, Major Sean Drummond, a top Army lawyer, is assigned to investigate this unspeakable atrocity. But of course, no one saw anything.

Very captivating stories
These short stories should be a book on their own. I really love it. The first story has some humor in it and the second story is very well written with a good storyline. If you are looking for some nice short stories, I definitely recommend Amazing Short Stories by Olamide Ojo.
