Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?
Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? (1968) by Philip K. Dick. In 2021 in San Francisco, bounty hunter Rick Deckard hunts down runaway androids. The book that formed the basis for the movie "Blade Runner" makes great companion reading for fans of the film. It's fascinating to read and see the parts of the book that were lifted almost verbatim and inserted in the movie -- and the parts of the book that were totally left out, or were used but modified. It's not a great book by any means, but for "Blade Runner" fanboys (like myself) it's must reading. Grade: A
