Book of Interest: Spider-Man: Hostile Takeover

I like video games but I don't have a huge interest in them. For instance, the last game that I bought was Batman: Arkham City for my Xbox 360 and that was seven years ago. So as you can see I don't buy a lot of games but lately I have been thinking about getting the LEGO Jurassic World game.

However, I am interested in reading this prequel for the upcoming Spider-Man game. This seems really interesting with a fake Spider-Man causing trouble throughout the city which is something Peter Parker really doesn't need. Especially since people tend to hate Spider-Man for no apparent reason when all he is trying to do is help.


Book: Spider-Man: Hostile Takeover by David Liss

Description:

The official prequel to MARVEL'S SPIDER-MAN, the PS4 exclusive video game from Marvel and Insomniac Games, with a thrilling adventure that leads directly into the game narrative itself.

PETER PARKER is caught in a complicated web. Working in a cutting-edge laboratory, he's a young scientist who's trying to make a difference. Yet he's constantly burdened by the responsibilities of his second career as the crime-fighting...

SPIDER-MAN

Wilson Fisk—the so-called Kingpin of Crime—has returned to New York, establishing himself publicly as an altruistic entrepreneur and philanthropist. Spider-Man knows better, but he can't uncover Fisk's scheme that, if executed, will make the crime lord "too big to fail."

When a new threat—a deadly doppelganger with Spider-Man's suit and abilities—wreaks havoc in the streets, can the real wall-crawler prove his innocence? With the clock ticking and lives on the line, can Spider-Man stop the brutal rampage of the Blood Spider? Will Spider-Man fall to his fears and foes, or will he rise and be greater?
