Philip was pleased with how his Resident Evil book turned out, and how much it connected with readers and reviewers. People noticed, for example, the care that he put into showcasing the way fixed-cam early PlayStation games allowed for attention to film-like direction and composition, and the achievement of finding and interviewing the English-language voice and live-action casts. It’s an extremely entertaining look at all aspects of horror, as well as an unexpectedly touching story of growing up in a small town with only movies and games to occupy one’s time.” 4.5/5 - Geek to Geek Media This is a good book for what it is: an attempt to novelize a video game that, though it has a large amount of action content, is really more of a puzzle game. And Perry does a good job writing around the puzzles. Or as good a job as anyone can do, at least. After all, without leaving at least some of the puzzles in, this book would have been a very short trip through a mansion of zombies and into a science lab. Not much to keep interest without a puzzle aspect. Sure, it works much better in the game, but Perry also comes up with some creative ways around some of the more ridiculous puzzles and simply ignores others. Chalk, Andy (September 16, 2019).

The novel for the first film, titled Resident Evil: Genesis, was published over two years after that film's release, while the Extinction novel was released in late July 2007, two months before the film's release. There was also a Japanese novelization of the first film, unrelated to DeCandido's version, written by Osamu Makino. Makino also wrote two novels based on the game Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles. In addition, the ending implies that Alpha Team landed in close proximity to the Spencer Mansion, when in the game, they were actually a ways off from the mansion. Dunkley, Cathy (May 9, 2001).

Leon S. Kennedy, Claire Redfield, and the survivors of the Caliban Cove incident are en route to Europe to rendezvous with the other surviving S.T.A.R.S. members for further operations against the evil Umbrella Corporation. While in the air, their plane is redirected by the mysterious Trent, an enigmatic figure who has been guiding and manipulating events throughout the entire series of novels. Trent informs the group of an Umbrella facility in Utah, used to test and train the company's experimental biological weapons. The facility's overseer, a man named Reston, is one of three people in the world in possession of a codebook which would allow access to all of Umbrella's most secret documents. Trent wants the group to infiltrate the facility, steal the codebook, and take down Umbrella once and for all. Phillips, Tom (June 15, 2016).
