Book Reviews of Code: Veronica (Resident Evil #6)

Book Review: Amazingly well written, gruesome and heart-stopping!
Summary: 5 Stars

For those who follow the Resident Evil series, whether in video games or by books, you will remember Claire Redfield from Resident Evil 2 or "City of the Dead."

The young, 19 year old, has gotten herself in even deeper than her first adventure in Raccoon City ("City of the Dead") after she travels half way across the world to Paris in search of her brother, Chris Redfield, a missing S.T.A.R.S police member whose last known whereabouts were in France. Claire finds herself at a dead end once she reaches Paris, only to find Chris is not there. Instead, after infiltrating a head intelligence agency, Claire finds a gun to her head and herself in a VERY bad situation. The girl is roughly apprehended and taken to an extremely secluded military base located in the middle of the ocean, Rockfort. A mysterious facility in which secret experiments have been conducted to create dangerous creatures to be used in war, is filled with gruesome images of death and horror that make the gut cringe. The things Claire sees would scar just about anyone for life, but will have the reader constantly turning the page.

Our heroine, Claire, is thrown deep into the middle, when, just with her arrival to Rockfort, a special forces team, attacks the island, destroying many of the buildings and causing a toxic spill, which infects the island inhabitants, turning them into the blood-craving undead.

But the undead are the least of the girl's problems as the master of Rockfort, Alfred Ashford, a descendant of the rich-blooded Ashford family, believes Claire is a threat to his family and to his beloved sister, Alexia. He unleashes a hord of terror-envoking creatures to dispose of Claire in hopes to allow him time to unfold his master plan involving his mysterious and never-seen sister Alexia.

The book experiments with views of all the characters. You dive deep into the mind of the often humurous and constantly calculating Claire Redfield, experience the pains of a fellow prisoner and friend Steve Burnside, and cringe with the thoughts of the sadistic Alfred Ashford. Amazing fast paced action and red-herrings were around EVERY corner of this book that I found myself struggle to close it. Your mind is constantly working to solve the puzzles and cope with the struggles of all the characters. And for those who have been primarily connected to the video games, the books dive deeper into the characters themselves as you find out much more about Chris, Claire, Leon, Steve and maybe a little too much about the derranged brother and sister, Alred and Alexia Ashford. This is truly one of the best science fiction novels I have read and I was truly sad when I had finished it, but I will not give away the new experimental creatures or the ending so you can enjoy it for yourself. Perhaps a possible sequel is still in store for Chris and Claire? Oh I hope so! :D
