Assassins Creed: Renaissance Gaming Book

[Dani.]

I'm not someone who reads books often but I took a look at the Assassin's Creed: Renaissance gaming books and I have to say they were good. Everyone probably knows the games but the books are something different and you understand the game better.

The Italian Renaissance in the Year of our Lord 1476: Where culture and art flourish alongside bribery, greed and murder where rival families wage merciless blood feuds for political and economic power. At this time begins the journey of a young nobleman driven by vengeance who one day will become an instrument of death a lone enforcer. He follows the path of the Brotherhood of Assassins and learns the secret skills of the ancient order of assassins. In his hunt for his family's murderers he draws on the wisdom of great minds like Leonardo da Vinci and Niccolò Machiavelli to bring his enemies to justice but guided only by the Assassin's Creed.

It’s wild how a game adaptation can actually deepen the experience. Makes you realize how much story gets compressed in gameplay. The Brotherhood’s philosophy hits different when you see Ezio wrestle with it in prose.

I never had a PS3 to play AC2 so I read the book long before I played the game, and honestly, the book stands on its own as a really good novel. It drops the modern day aspects which is a bonus. Definitely worth a look I would say.

Also check out Dead Space: Martyr, it's awesome. Not amazingly written but man is it a fun ride.

The Ezio trilogy Assassin's Creed II, Brotherhood and Revelations is one of the best ever.
