Battle Angel Alita, Volume 3 : Killing Angel (Battle Angel Alita)
Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
In the first volume of Yukito Kishiro's Battle Angel Alita, Daisuke Ido discovers a badly damaged cyborg in the trash heap beneath the floating city of Tiphares, which he rebuilds and names Alita. She has no memory of her previous life, but when she is drawn into a battle with the monster Makaku, Alita realizes that she must uncover the dark secrets of her past.
Kishiro's story is much more than a science-fiction adventure. Woven into the violent, roller-coaster plot is a strand of philosophical speculation. Battle Angel Alita takes us to a world where technology blurs the boundaries between human and machine, begging the question "What makes us who we are?"

Book Description
Her spirit crushed over the loss of Hugo, Alita runs away from Doc Ido and the life she's built in the Scrapyard to become a challenger in motorball, a combat-like game that pits cyborg competitors against each other. As they race through the obstacle course, fighting for the ball, Alita learns her foes will do anything to win, and that losers often don't live to talk about their defeat.
