While it’s not quite as definitive’s original creators left the series – it’s the only real disappointment we had. Years of research and the opportunity to interview key figures, including Shinji Mikami, Yoshiki Okamoto and Tokuro Fujiwara has allowed Alex to really delve into the guts of Capcom’s long-running series and the end result is a book that’s filled with surprising revelations and interesting anecdotes. Alex’s love and respect for the subject matter is obvious throughout and it’s written in an engaging style that keeps you invested in the franchise’s many twists and turns. An essential read for horror and Capcom fans alike.
