This review is for my second reading as an ebook.

Well, that was weird--even by Philip K. Dick standards. It's more of a philosophical treatise than a novel. Clearly semi-autobiographical, the distinctions between fact and fiction are quite blurry. The schizophrenic tone established between Horselover Fat and Philip Dick takes some getting used to. Nevertheless, there are a ton of ideas to contemplate, particularly in the realm of religion in society. This book is not for a Philip Dick newbie, but for those familiar with his oeuvre it provides a nice capstone to his body of work and his life.
