"In a dump in the lawless settlement of Scrapyard, far beneath the mysterious space city of Zalem, disgraced cyber-doctor Daisuke Ido makes a strange find: the detached head of a cyborg woman who has lost all her memories. He names her Alita and equips her with a powerful new body, the Berserker. While Alita remembers no details of her former life, a moment of desperation reawakens in her nerves the legendary school of martial arts known as Panzer Kunst. In a place where there is no justice but what people make for themselves, Alita decides to become a hunter-killer, tracking down and taking out those who prey on the weak. But can she hold onto her humanity as she begins to revel in her own bloodlust?"--Publisher's website. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

After leaving the deadly sport arena Alita is living more or less normal life as bounty hunter and singer/dj in the bar New Kansas, until, by sheer accident, enemy from the past (Zappan) comes back. What happens is that Alita faces a perfect storm that culminates in confrontation with Zappan (who got few updates again by sheer accident), confrontation with citizens of Scrapyard who just want her to leave so they can go back to normal life (since every lowlife with the grudge destroys everything in order to get to Alita) and very very hard loss that will leave our heroine in total shambles (and I mean, this part was bruutal in a way of "Seven").
Finally, crazy doctor (Mengele and he would make good buddies) Destiny Nova comes on stage .... to stay until the very end of story.
Second part of the book finds Alita working as Zalem undercover agent in the wastelands. Here she will find her love but also encounter mysterious organization called Barjack Army that threatens the Zalem by wreaking havoc on factory outposts outside the Zalem.
Without going any further into details (because it is truly worth the read, story is amazing) Alita will find herself in the epicenter of several events. Here enemies she will know but also she will need to figure out who are her friends.
Art as always is just beautiful. Entire wasteland outside the Scrapyard is so reminiscent of Mad Max and (at least for me) of W40k/Unification Wars - filled with crazy megalomaniac warlords and armies that have found old weapons and technology and try to carve their path in this post-apocalyptic world.
With that being said I truly hope new movies get made, but considering that story becomes very mature I am not sure it will be happening soon (although I will always keep hoping, first movie was a gem imho).
Highly recommended to all fans of cyberpunk and good ol' fashion SF action. (
