Includes the stories that inspired the movies Total Recall, Screamers, Minority Report, Paycheck, and Next "More than anyone else in the field, Mr. Dick really puts you inside people's minds." --The Wall Street Journal The Philip K. Dick Reader   Many thousands of readers consider Philip K. Dick the greatest science fiction mind on any planet. Since his untimely death in 1982, interest in Dick's works has continued to mount, and his reputation has been further enhanced by a growing body of critical attention. The Philip K. Dick Award is now given annually to a distinguished work of science fiction, and the Philip K. Dick Society is devoted to the study and promulgation of his works.

This marvelous collection of 24 stories includes such gems as “Fair Game,” “The Hanging Stranger,” “The Last of the Masters,” “War Veteran,” “Exhibit Piece,” “Sales Pitch,” “The Chromium Fence,” and several tales that were adopted into film, such as “We Can Remember it for You Wholesale” (Total Recall, 1990), “The Minority Report” (Minority Report, 2002), “The Golden Man” (Next, 2007), and “Second Variety” (Screamers, 1995).

Additionally, “Sales Pitch,” “Exhibit Piece,” “The Hanging Stranger,” and “Foster, You’re Dead!” were dramatized in the 2017 Amazon Prime anthology series, Electric Dreams, based on the works of Philip K. Dick. ( )

A genius . . . if a little crazy, but he was way ahead of his time. ( )

Like the other Philip K. Dick collection I read, lots of good, and some great, stories in this collection! ("Paycheck" being a particular favorite!) It is kind of like a sci-fi version of the Twilight Zone! Lots of war themes, end of the world scenarios, and man vs. robot conflicts. Major political, social, and military issues and commentaries, a lot reflecting the times in which they were written. But my favorite of the bunch may be "The Eyes Have It", which is pretty darn funny and almost out of place in this group! And "Fair Game" which is majorly Twilight Zoneish! I have really become a big fan of this author! ( )

Wonderful. Reads like a good Twilight Zone marathon.
