An excellent collection of short stories about the .hack world5
This book is not actually a direct sequel to .hack//AI Buster volume one; it is a collection of five short stories about various characters from AI Buster and another .hack series, Legend of the Twilight. The five stories are:

2nd Character/Haruka Muzuhara's Situation: This story retells the events of AI Buster volume one from the point of view of Hokuto, the annoying amateur wavemaster who followed Albireo around. In this story we find out about Haruka Muzuhara, the woman who plays as Hokuto, and learn that she is not such a newbie after all.

Wotan's Spear: This story is a direct sequal to AI Buster volume one and tells the story of what happened to Alibero after the events of the first novel, how he was changed, and why he left The World.

Kamui: This story tells about Alibero's successor, Kamui, and her own disturbing encounter with a Vagrant AI in The World.

Rumor: This story tells about Rena, one of the main characters of the Legend of the Twilight anime and manga, directly before that story began. This was probably the weakest story in the book because it was too short and not much happened.

Firefly: This story is about Hotaru from Legend of the Twilight. It introduces the player behind the character, and tells about how Hotaru first joined the Japanese server of The World and met Sanjuro.

Overall, this was an excellent collection that gives more depth to many of the characters from The World. I'd recommend it to all .hack fans.
