About this ebook
The official prequel novel to Marvel’s Spider-Man, the action-adventure 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?
Marvel’s Spider-Man: Hostile Takeover features an exclusive storyline, available only in this prequel novel, which leads directly into the action of the video game.

Good story, but the writing was just so-so. The ending leaves you hanging, but also raises excitement for the video game. 9nly 11 days left!

If you are planning on playing the new Spider-Man game for PS4, I highly recommend this book. Not only does it give good context to the characters and story of the new game, but it is actually a really good read as well. I cried, I laughed, and I am more excited than ever to finally dip my hands into the new Spider-Man adventure.
