Resident evil: 1: The umbrella conspiracy

The book's central secret feels so intriguing and ominous. I'm curious whether the author drew from real-world tech fears or created it entirely from imagination.

While I loved the build-up, some parts felt like they dragged a bit. Was that intentional to build suspense or just a byproduct of world-building?

The mix created such a tense atmosphere. I'm interested in how these genres influenced each other during the writing process.
