I was interested, does it help set up the status quo for the game?
Yes, the story involves Spider-Man working to takedown the Kingpin, and introduces some of the characters who I know are in the game. For example it covers Spider-Man's first meeting with Yuri Watanabe who looks like a major part of the game, and Martin Li. It was less than £4 on Kindle and I'm enjoying it enough so far to warrant that price.
