Even for the hallucinatory, infinite landscape of cyberspace, stuff's getting out of hand! Deep within the digital universe of the Decontale supercomputer, super cyber-agent Motoko Aramaki is in deep trouble. It's tough enough running the risk of being caught by heavily-armed security in the real world, but when Matoko is being given the business by the godlike avatars in the virtual world, Matoko runs an even greater risk: assimilation and erasure! The astonishing sequel to the manga/anime classic Ghost in the Shell, Masamune Shirow's Man-Machine Interface takes graphic fiction into unexplored realms, creating a fully-realized digital dreamscape that takes readers to the edge of tomorrow and to a coming age where the nature of existence itself will be deconstructed, reassembled, and redefined.
