Science Fiction
It is 2030. In the wake of the
third world war, cybernetics
has blurred the defi nition of what
makes us human. The concept of
the soul has also grown more complex,
as machines have developed
“ghosts,” aspects of intelligence that
make them more than just nuts-andbolts
machines. In this dystopia,
the crimes of the fl esh and the metal
are investigated and punished by
Section 9, an elite counterterrorist
squad headed by Chief Aramaki and
Major Motoko Kusanagi, an offi cer
whose brain has been transplanted
into a totally cybernetic body. In a
dark world of murder, cyberbrain
hacks, and conspiracies that reach to
the heights of government, Section 9
is all that stands between the people
and anarchy. In these three stories—
“Double Targets,” “First Love, Last
Love,” and “Revenge of the Cold
Machines”—the action heats up as
Aramaki and Motoko face new, catastrophic
threats
