This is the 1999 Pocket Books (US) paperback edition of “Resident Evil: Underworld” that I read. Needless to say, this review may contain some SPOILERS. So, let’s take a look at “Resident Evil: Underworld”. But, if you’re familiar with the first two “Resident Evil” videogames, you can probably get away with just reading the second novel ( “Resident Evil: Caliban Cove”) before reading this one. However, I should point out that, whilst this novel theoretically works as a stand-alone novel ( since there are a lot of recaps), the story and characters will make more sense if you’ve read the previous three novels before reading this one. Since I didn’t remember much about it other than reading the shockingly dramatic epilogue during a train journey, I was eager to see if it was still as dramatic as I remembered. This was a novel that I first read at some point during my mid-late teens. This is the fourth novel in Perry’s “Resident Evil” series ( you can find my reviews of the previous three books here, here and here) and it tells an original story that isn’t based on any of the “Resident Evil” videogames. Well, since I seem to be going through a phase of reading spin-off novels, I thought that I’d take the opportunity to re-read S.D.Perry’s 1999 novel “Resident Evil: Underworld”.
