Assassin's Creed: Unity

Ok, I might be in the minority, but I actually liked Unity. The story grew on me as I played it. I really enjoyed the relationship between Arno and Elise so I decided to get the book after beating the game. Great story, love hearing it from Elise's point of view. Gives you a new side to the story if you enjoyed the game like I did. Definitely worth purchasing.

I like the history thrown in with the fiction. My kids loved the series.

For a man, Oliver Bowden a.k.a. Anton Gill writes women well. Elise De La Serre is the novel's narrator as it's written in journal entries like in previous Creed books. Occasionally we hear another character's voice in the form of Arno's. Elise is a well-drawn protagonist, and Bowden's efforts are successful in having the reader sympathize with her inner conflicts. There may be the assumption in more high-brow circles that video game material lacks depth, but rest assured--Bowden crafts complex plots with twists and surprises. In Unity perfidy lurks around every corner. It infiltrates not only the bedlam of the French Revolution, a fitting setting to such story, but the Assassin and Templar Orders as well. Supposed friends cannot be trusted and apparent enemies may be saviors. Along with the deceit and intrigue comes the unexpected. Scenes are rife with excitement and surprise--a true sign of freshness and vivacity in a novel. Warring secret societies in France during one of its most tumultuous and modernizing periods make for a fast-paced and riveting read. Undoubtedly this concept has served well with its multi-million dollar video game. It serves the novel well too.

Purchased for teenage grandson. The most recent in the Assasin's Creed series. Smart writing. Very intriguing story. Characters you grow to love. Would recommend to anyone who is a fan of this series.

I am a huge fan of the series and played all games up th black flag since I was unable to play unity I decided to read it. Best idea ever

I loved playing Assassin's Creed Unity, the game. The book filled in some of the missing gaps, such as what Elise was doing when Arno was off assassinating the bad guys. The game follows the French Revolution to a natural climax of events. The book tells the finale pages before actually describing the finale. I do not understand. The book should have allowed the events to unfold, building to the climax. The author assumed that we already knew the ending (which I did) and therefore the building of tension was unnecessary. I really liked the book until the final chapters. How disappointing that the author (who has done other Assassin's Creed books) could not allow events to build to the ending. For me, I will not waste my money buying other titles from this author.

I dont want to judge the quality of this serious. However, I am big fan of Assassin'c Creed, that makes me enjoy every products around it. I have already finish reading the previous six books. With the information given by the book we can always know more about the secret of assassins and templars.

Haven't finished it yet, but this is a good read so far. I will never not be on the AC bandwagon, but I enjoy this book regardless of the universe it is set in. Elise is a great character I see a lot of myself in and it is (so far) an enjoyable read hearing things from her side. Unity may not have been the best game, but it had a good story that this book sheds more light on.

Gran novela que narra los hechos ocurridos en Assassin's Creed Unity , muy detalla como en el juego y muy recomendable

This is my favourite AC book yet. The story is compelling and more than just a novel accompanying the game. It is definitely more interesting seeing the story from the perspective of a character who is not the main character in the game.

Anche per il giallo sono rimasto contento pero se lo sapevo prima ne prendevo una sola in italiano ,ma la colpa e la mia perche' sono stato troppo frettoloso a comprarlo per il resto era perfetto non lo ancoraa letto ma chi gli piace la saga di assasin'credd sara' bello come gli altri. saluti maurizio bianchini

Llegó súper rápido y en muy buenas condiciones. Uno más para la colección.

An amazing book and I would recommend it to anyone.It covers all of the back story of Assassins Creed Unity and questions left unanswered. I have never played Assassins Creed but I watched a walk through of it. It can sometimes drag on and the chapters can be quite long but all in all it is a great book.
