Appleseed

In the wake of World War III, humanity rebuilds from the wreckage, and the gleaming city of Olympus rises as a symbol of renewal. Governed by the supercomputer Gaia and supported by vast numbers of Bioroids—genetically engineered humans created to manage the city’s administration—Olympus promises its residents a life insulated from hardship. Yet beneath its orderly surface, a troubling spike in crime begins to fracture the illusion of a perfect society.

Deunan Knute and her partner, Briareos Hecantochires, serve with Olympus’ Enhanced SWAT, tackling the city’s most dangerous incidents as tensions mount. When terrorists move to upend the foundations of Olympus itself, the two are drawn into a fight to protect the fragile peace—whatever it demands of them.
