Reviews""Parasite Eve" combines Michael Crichton's scientific cutting-edge plausibility wiht David Cronenberg's abject flesh/sex horror. Throw in Frankenstein and "The Blob," synthesize, and enjoy." - "Fangoria" ""Parasite Eve" will appeal to general readers, and not just devotees of science fiction and horror." - "SF Magazine Japan", "Comes just in time for summer getaway reading… Oozes with enough violence and sexual perversity to make Caligula blush." -TIME "Hideaki Sena, a pharmacologist, microbiologist and now pop icon, knows all too well how to combine the scientifically plausible with the psychologically unimaginable… Have fun with it, by all means, but don't keep it on the bedside table." -Susan Salter Reynolds, L.A. Times "Parasite Eve combines Michael Crichton's scientific cutting-edge plausibility with David Cronenberg's abject flesh/sex horror. Throw in Frankenstein and The Blob, synthesize, and enjoy." -Fangoria "Sena's work in pharmacology and microbiology lends this Japanese import a sense of discovery and fear that resonates when new science is not fully understood. SF and horror fans who liked Suzuki Koji's Ring…will find Parasite Eve a chilling tale on a cellular level; recommended." -Library Journal

SynopsisIt was this novel, along with Koji Suzuki's Ring series that began the J-Horror boom. A page-turner about the rebellion of mitochondria, it became the Japan Horror Novel Award's first winner and the inspiration for a videogame that became a hit. At the centre of the novel is Eve, initially just a microscopic entity who later questions the meaning of life, harking the philosophical musings of Ghosts in the Shell. Once Eve tastes the fruit of free will and love, science proves powerless to her infection. Now in paperback., When Dr Nagashima attempts to reincarnate his dead wife things don't go according to plan and he unleashes a monster!
