Coinciding with the start of Heroes Reborn, six eBook tie-ins tell various stories. Depending on the novella, their aim is to focus on new and familiar Heroes characters, to extend the narrative from Heroes Reborn, or help fill in the gap between the old series and the new.
About
On July 12, 2015, Imperative Entertainment announced six eBooks that tie-in to Heroes Reborn. The books will be published in a joint venture from Bastei Lübbe and Imperative Entertainment, and will be available primarily as eBooks, but also as audio books. After they are all released, the books will be published in print as an anthology.
Heroes creator Tim Kring said, "What you see on TV is just a piece of the Heroes universe we’ve created. These novellas give existing and new fans a chance to learn the fates of some of their favorite characters and to dive deeper into Heroes' rich mythology. Plus, they're a lot fun to read."
Novellas
Current Books
- Brave New World, written by David Bishop -- It was released September 25, 2015. From Amazon: "A year after from the fateful events of the Odessa Summit, the world is a very different place. It’s certainly no longer friendly for Evolved Humans - or "Evos” - who are held responsible for what happened. If the government doesn’t find you, there are some tenacious and merciless Evo-hunters out there who will."
- A Matter of Trust, written by Timothy Zahn -- This book focuses on a priest with a dark secret. From Amazon: "As the number of Evolved Humans increases, so does the pressure from the governments and people of the world. Father Mauricio begins searching for a way to help all Evos after befriending a troubled teenager who possesses a devastating secret. As a priest, it is Father Mauricio's calling to protect the innocent and this includes the Evos who, by no fault of their own, find their lives and freedom being threatened." This book was originally set to be released October 9, 2015. On October 9, the date was pushed to November 20. A preview section of this book was included in the back of Vengeance, Part 1.
