[QUOTE="Ubik, post: 43322278, member: 212628"] Man in the High Castle (imo) isn't one of his best. It was amazing with character development and showing how so many of the characters were linked in some way and the setting was totally convincing. However the ending kinda killed it for me. It certainly left the reader thinking - a lot - but it was hardly a brilliant way to do it. Of course, Dick was probably hyped up on some amphetamines (he called it his fuel for writing) when he wrote it so the ending probably made complete sense to him! I'd recommend either Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? (the influence for the movie Blade Runner) or A Scanner Darkly (his only book he wrote while he was not on drugs. his best imo). [/QUOTE]
