The Ghost in the Shell (novel): Five New Short Stories

The Ghost in the Shell (novel): Five New Short Stories

Neither a utopia nor a dystopia, itâ€™s still a world of nations at strife, as dominated by corporations as ever. Technology hasnâ€™t made humans nearly obsolete, but rather bettered us, if you will, attaching to our bodies and even brains as enhancementsâ€”for those who can afford it.

Comics artist Shirow Masamuneâ€™s vision of our coming society, animated to global acclaim and finally the basis of a major Hollywood production, branches out in five original stories by some of the most beloved SF novelists working in Japan today. A standalone collection, it requires no familiarity with the franchise to be enjoyed but is indispensable for fans for its thoughtful exploration of the seriesâ€™ implications.

While reality may never become virtual, it will be increasingly networked and augmented. Navigate herein age-old questions about man that will return, not so ironically, in full force: What is the self? Is there such a thing as the soul?
