Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep (book)
Do Androids Dream of Electric SheepThis was a quick read. My first Philip K. Dick novel. The basis for Blade Runner, which I've only seen once. I think the book does a better job of making you identify with the characters, incidentally. Recommended (and loaned) to me by Brian the phycist.
I think the best way to describe Dick's style of writing is how the guy who wrote the intro does (paraphrased): "Mr. Dick takes a premise that another author would build a novel around and mentions it in passing..."
Definitely a fun book. Give it a whirl.
