Both of Perry’s original novels give fans of the series a chance to see some of their favourite characters in a different scenario unavailable elsewhere. They don’t do anything to impact the characterisation of the cast established in the games; nor do they tamper negatively with the Resident Evil timeline. In fact, they fill in holes between each of the video games particularly well. They give fans the opportunity to see what may have been going on with the characters during those times.

The story serves as a prelude to the events of the original Resident Evil, in which Chris Redfield investigates the disappearance of a missing friend. As I mentioned, Perry’s Resident Evil series also includes two original books, Caliban Cove and Underworld. Both books are a fantastic addition to the series, and Caliban Cove actually happens to be my favourite. a b c d Barber, Nicholas (October 21, 2014). "Why are zombies still so popular?". BBC .

And all of the novels are that way. They follow the storyline of each game precisely with very few added details. Many of the events that don’t happen in the games you’d barely notice were embellished because they fit alongside the plot seamlessly. For example, the addition of the character Trent. He’s a mysterious figure who helps multiple members of S.T.A.R.S and others, showing up randomly at opportune moments. The character adds an extra bit of mystery to the novels, and fits well into the peculiar world we’re already used to in Resident Evil.
