And i'm done. Ubik was insane. Perhaps crazier than Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldridtch. I'll have to re-read both at some point in time. This set was so good I decided to buy the follow up anthology.

What the fuck is going on?! Ubik is a crazy crazy book.

I've read Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep before. It's the story they used as the basis for Blade Runner. The book and the film are quite different, though they cover a lot of similar themes.

I finished Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldridtch. It was really quite fascinating (and bleak). An interesting look at drug use.

I'm onto the second book in this anthology now, Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldridtch. I can see why Dick is sometimes called a Pulp write. This book has some great descriptions: "frail and blonde but huge in the balcony," "There was something about her—beyond the obvious physical, anatomical enormity—that fascinated him"

The books a very interesting look at drug use. I suppose the time it was written has much to do with that. (And, as I understand things, the fact Dick was probably a serious-ass addict of sorts.) The whole sequence with Leo in the Chew-D fantasy was thoroughly bizarre and enjoyable.
