Kiyomi’s body just happens to have the right conditions for Eve to begin to take control.

The mitochondria have formed a new life form, called “Eve,” which has now reached a peak in her evolutionary process. The novel presumes that the mitochondria in a human’s cells have been evolving since the days of primordial sludge. However, there is more going on than meets the eye. His wife, Kiyomi, has been declared brain dead after a horrible car accident. The story follows Toshiaki Nagishima, a biology and pharmaceutical researcher. It takes real science and twists it a bit to make a fast-paced story. That’s what makes it such good science fiction, though. The book is so technical that it is often confusing to follow, unless the reader has a thorough background in biology. The story is heavily based on science, including biology and genetics. It was originally published in 1996, but people who couldn’t read in Japanese had to wait to read it until 2005 when it was finally translated into English. Parasite Eve, the novel, by Hideaki Sena is a Japanese horror novel with many science fiction elements. The book and game are tied tightly together, and they demonstrate that one really can have an extremely well done game based from literature. Parasite Eve is an older Playstation game that was actually the sequel to a popular Japanese horror novel of the same title. Happily, there are some gems that are hidden in the crowd of mediocrity. Many people have complained over the years to the fact that movies and games that are taken from books almost never turn out to be as good as the original source.
