Synopsis

From one of the legendary figures to emerge from the manga publishing phenomenon comes the second volume in this hyper-action synthesis of Japanese cyborg culture! Motoko Aramaki is a counter-terrorist expert who straddles the real world and the virtual networks of cyberspace. Using remote drones of her cyborg self, she is out to solve a string of bizarre crimes that will lead her into the path of psychic Tamaki Tamai. An investigator for the Channelling Agency, she is chasing the cause of a breakdown in the temporal universe whose ripples will shatter reality forever! Blending cortex-numbing stories and nose bled inducing visuals, Masamune Shirow continues to set the standard by which all manga is measured! Warning: Adults only!
