Review

I moved to this one after reading The Umbrella Conspiracy. Yeah, I skipped the "Caliban Cove" because I was so eager to read RE2's novelization.

I think this book was even more gripping than "The Umbrella Conspiracy". The action was more intense and fun to read. The (disfunctional) romance between Leon and Ada was a joy to go through as well. I also liked that Claire got many chances to kick ass here.

Overall, it was a great read and now I'm wanting to read the whole book in this series. I wish Capcom would continue the novelization with RE 4, 5, and 6.
