DO ANDROIDS DREAM OF ELECTRIC SHEEP? - PHILIP K...

The science fiction masterpiece behind the cult classic films Bladerunner and Bladerunner 2049.
World War Terminus had left the Earth devastated. Through its ruins  bounty hunter Rick Deckard
stalked  in search of the renegade replicants who were his prey. When he wasn't 'retiring' them
with his laser weapon  he dreamed of owning a live animal - the ultimate status symbol in a
world all but bereft of animal life.  Then Rick got his chance: the assignment to kill six
Nexus-6 targets  for a huge reward. But in Deckard's world things were never that simple  and
his assignment quickly turned into a nightmare kaleidoscope of subterfuge and deceit - and the
threat of death for the hunter rather than the hunted ...   Readers have been blown away by
Philip K. Dick:   'Now I understand what all the fuss is about. The guy is a visionary . . .
Every paragraph launches us forward  demands our attention . . . a classic example of the
finest science fiction ' Goodreads reviewer  ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐  'Probably my favourite Philip K. Dick
book . . . set in a dystopian Earth much dilapidated after 'World War Terminus' . . . I cannot
praise this book enough  it really is one of the all-time greats ' Goodreads reviewer  ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
⭐  ' A science fiction masterpiece . . . about a post-apocalyptic world seeking resurrection
through the rediscovery of empathy. But who is more empathetic - humans or androids? What is
the dividing line? The book constantly explores how far human ideas of life  death  religion
and love could survive in a dark uncaring world' Goodreads reviewer  ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐  'I thought this
was great and original . . . The Earth has become barely habitable due to nuclear winter 
radiation and depopulation . . . a really cool story and I think only PKD could have written
something of this style . I would recommend this . . . if you liked the Blade Runner movies'
