This used book in good condition offers fans a pulse-pounding narrative that expands on the RE2 game scenarios, enriched with deep character insights and intense horror elements. Highly rated and a must-read for any RE aficionado. ## Description A rookie cop and a resourceful young woman in search of her brother venture into Raccoon City on the very night that a horrifying viral outbreak has transformed every man, woman, and child into one of the living dead. Review: The Best One in the Series! - I'll start off by saying that I'm a huge RE nerd. I love this stuff and the novels by Mrs. Perry are amazing and I recommend them to any RE fan. I first read these books right after RE0 was released on the GameCube. I also recommended these be released on the Kindle about ten times over the past two years, so when they finally did I snatched them all up on their release dates! Resident Evil: City of the Dead For anyone who's played RE2 and knows that there are actually 4 total campaigns rolled into one game...this book follows Leon's A Scenario and Claire's B Scenario. Now that we've established that; this book is my absolute favorite! This is the longest RE novel Mrs. Perry has written in the series. It covers all the major plot points and gives you a view of Ada's perspective during the outbreak in Raccoon City. This book is so good that it's very VERY hard to put down and every time I read it I have a hard time keeping my mind on anything else. The author does a fantastic job of relating the relationships between Claire and Sherry and between Leon and Ada. Even now (post-RE6 release) you can feel that these four are tied together emotionally, even if the RE universe changed their positions a little bit. If you read any of these books I would suggest it be this one; let the Resident Evil 2 nostalgia take over! Note: If you've played the games then I would recommend that you read these books in numerical order (making RE0 last). There are some discrepancies between the books because the RE universe has been tweaked and updated for clarification over the past fifteen years or so. Mrs. Perry does mention this at the beginning of her books and for the most part they still flow together nicely and don't take away from stories at all. Review: Another good read from S.D Perry. - I was always a huge fan of the now-classic Resident Evil games for the original playstation game console. One entry in particular that I hold near and dear to my heart(and hope someday to see a next-gen remake version of,hear that Capcom?) I'm talkin' about the beloved seedy,moody,dark,yet all-too-fun and enthralling second entry. The fact that the author has already done the novelization for the first game was good enough for me(there are many other novel adaptations for the RE series). But upon reading City of the Dead,I was once again thrusted into the roles of Leon and Claire,this time from a deeper,more intimate readers perspective of the two main protagonists. The desperation and fright of being in a city once filled with life,now crawling with the flesh-eating undead and many other biological terrors is food for thought(pun intended 8^D) If you are like me,when you read,you let your imagination grab hold.....and it just makes for a much more skin-crawling,pulse-pounding experience. Leon and Claire have different reasons for coming into town on this faithful night,what they get instead;much like in the video game....is a night in Hell. Almost everything about the book is great. From their encounters and reactions with the licker,spiders,decaying dobermans,the Tyrant known as Mr.X,or The G-Virus creature once known as Dr. William Birkin....to the monologue or rather,inner thoughts of many of the assisting side characters;Ada Wong,Annette and Sherry Birkin and the mentally-unstable police chief Irons. My only qualm is certain minor elements or puzzles of the game were excluded in the novel. But these are trivial things indeed. All in all,Classic Resident Evil fans rejoice. I hope you guys enjoy the boom as I have. ## Features - Used Book in Good Condition ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #24,630 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #413 in TV, Movie & Game Tie-In Fiction #2,353 in Horror Literature & Fiction #4,140 in Science Fiction (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 1,355 Reviews | ## Images ![City of the Dead (Resident Evil #3) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91b0aR3nF4L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Best One in the Series! *by T***8 on January 9, 2013* I'll start off by saying that I'm a huge RE nerd.
