Parasyte

author: Iwaaki, Hitoshi
"They arrive in silence and darkness. They descend from the skies. They have a hunger for human flesh. They are everywhere. They are parasites, alien creatures who to survive must invade--and take control of--a human host. Once they have infected their victims, they can assume any deadly form they choose--monsters with giant teeth, winged demons, creatures with blades for hands--but most have chosen to conceal their lethal purpose behind ordinary human faces. So no one knows their secret--except an ordinary high school student. Shin is battling for control of his own body against an alien parasite, but can he find a way to warn humanity of the horrors to come?"--Back cover.
