I've just downloaded, imprinted and readed the Villains lorebook from the wizards of the coast download section. In there is said that there is a heroes tome, too. And I'd like to know where to download it, cause is not in the wizards site.

Try RPGNow.com for a PDF copy, or nobleknight.com for an in-print version of the Heroes' Lorebook.

Be aware however that these sites will require you to actually "pay" for this tome, as it is not available freely like the Villain's Lorebook at WotC.

I periodically see it on eBay, as well.

Well, if you like too much of the Villain's Lorebook, so I strongly recommend the Heroe's Lorebook. A good selection of faerūnian heroes is presented there, in the same way of the Villain“s.

Chosen of Moradin, thinking why this type of books don“t come yet to the third edition...

Dwarf, DM, husband, and proud of this! :P

Don't forget Hall of Heroes which has info that neither Heroes or Villian's Lorebooks have.

For some of us, books are as important as almost anything else on earth. What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet and excite you... Books are full of the things that you don't get in real life - wonderful, lyrical language, for instance, right off the bat. - Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

Yes Hall of Heroes. It was the earlier book that Heroes and Villians Lorebooks expanded on. It had some 1e and 2e stats since it came out at the 1e/2e change over.

As for finding it.... ebay, nobleknight.com, or other out of print places.....
