Kring: 'Heroes is like reading a novel'

Heroes creator Tim Kring believes that following the latest sequence of episodes is as rewarding as reading a novel.

"If you stick with it, you will be rewarded," Kring told Sci Fi Wire of the current volume 'Villains', "because you're not going to get put into a situation where answers never come. There's a finite number of episodes here, and you know it going in.

"We've announced that 'Villains' will be 13 episodes long, and so you know by the end of episode 13 you're going to have seen the beginning, middle and end... like reading a novel."

"These same characters are in another novel that starts six weeks later," Kring added, referring to the second volume of the third season entitled 'Fugitives'.
