A review by tillybh
Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood by Oliver Bowden

4.0

As with AC: Renaissance, I wasn't expecting much with this book other than just as a bit of a fun read. I was pleasantly surprised with AC: Brotherhood.

Firstly, the novel expands much on the game's storyline, more so than in Renaissance. This was very welcome and it was a joy to see more of characters who hardly feature in the game (notably Leonardo.)

Secondly, it's obvious that Bowden's writing has developed since he wrote Renaissance. While there are still odd sentence structures - and somehow I'm not sure the term "HQ" would have appeared in sixteenth century speech! - it has definitely improved.

Overall it was another fun read, enjoyable and easy.
