Though I usually steer away from comparing adaptations in reviews, I assume that any potential audience has played the game or at least know the story, and I will henceforth compare the book to the corresponding game.

Of all Resident Evil novelizations I’ve read, this is the most different from its corresponding game. Several scenes are omitted or merged, which does neither story nor pacing any favor. The Ashford residence, one of the truly iconic locations of not only code Veronica but in all of Resident Evil, was all but done in one chapter. Much of the rich lore is sacrificed in favor of multiple POV’s, where, a tedious number of pages towards the end is spent on dwelling into Alexia’s twisted mind and, like often is the case show more for Perry’s RE novels, it soon became the same repetitive self-entitled crazy talk all the RE antagonists seem to employ but this time with added supernatural mind-reading. show less
Resident evil remains one of my favorite zombie series'. The story very closely follows the games...unlike the movies
Una búsqueda desesperada de su hermano desaparecido enfrenta una vez más a Clare Redfield contra las aterradoras armas biológicas de la Corporación Umbrella. Su búsqueda la lleva a una isla remota donde un genio loco ha desatado todas las criaturas grotescas a su disposición para evitar su interferencia.
