Product Description

Product Description

Hiro Nakamura possesses the remarkable power to control time. And like his uniquely blessed comrades, he's on a mission for the good of humankind. But another challenge awaits him: saving the love of his life from an unspeakable death. Charlene "Charlie" Andrews is the big hearted, small-town beauty whose sunny smile and sweet soul have knocked the shy Hiro head over heels. But when Charlie's young life is snuffed out by a grisly serial killer, their budding romance is brutally cut short. Or is it? In this original novel based on the TV phenomenon Heroes, Hiro steps centre stage on a deeply personal quest that will test the limits of his gift, the depth of his love, and the ultimate strength of his will. Thanks to his astounding newfound skill, Hiro has the means to do what no tragedy-stricken lover in history ever could - turn back time. He vows to deliver Charlie from the evil poised to claim her. He will be her hero.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing, 22 Oct 2008
By Mr. Ross L. Muggridge (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Saving Charlie - taken from Heroes season 1, we find out about the untold love story between Hiro and Charlie.
I loved this book, we learn a lot about Hiro and his past and the relationships he holds with his family. It defines Hiro more than the Series manages to capture him and gives him a real warmth. It focuses on Hiro trying to save Charlie as the title says, but turns into much more when a romance blossoms. The book deals with the erratic nature of Hiro's powers and the ability (or lack thereof) to control it. He goes through a journey of self learning and discovery as he gets closer and closer to charlie. A very emotional book with fantastic character development. At times the writing is a tad cheesey but easily forgiven because of the general Epicness of the book in general. I would recommend this to anyone, fan of heroes or not, although watching the series would help to understand certain points. It may not be as much action as the series has but it doesn't need the action. But it does have some very thrilling scenes :D

3.0 out of 5 stars A little disappointing, 19 Jan 2009
By Mr. J. Hughes (Manchester) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book starts off really good but the story just falls away in the second half of the book and you feel short changed by the end of it. I may be doing the author an injustice here but in my opinion it seems to have been hastily written. I suspect the reason for this, as is the case with most TV tie ins, is that the book was rushed out to cash in on the shows popularity when a better story could have been produced if the author was given longer to write it. Still, I think fans may want to read this one as it does have some good moments and compliments the show quite well.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not For A Heroes Fan, 21 Sep 2008
Heroes is an amazing T.V series, unfortunatly Saving Charlie isn't. Firstly you really have to watch the T.V series in order to understand this book. Even though it helps the reader to understand what is going on, it isn't enough decription. Secondly if you have seen the T.V series you know the ending and about 1/8 of the book. When I got this book I couldn't wait to read it, and i'm a pretty fast reader and 350 pages shouldn't take to long. The book actualy took me three months to get through. Why? beacause this is not an action adventure book. The most action that happens is folding paper (I'm not joking). You get this expecting it to be superpowers and fighting crime. Not a slow love story which makes you forget the book says HEROES on the front.

If you like romance storys and Heroes then this is the book for you, but if you like more fast paced stuff, then stay away.
