And if anyone wants to get into PKD, I highly recommend the following books:

* Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?

* Ubik

* The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch

* A Scanner Darkly

* VALIS (but probably not until you've read some of his others, and also read a bit about his life, because it's pseudo-autobiographical)

I just finished reading a biography of him called "Divine Invasions" (not to be confused with his book "The Divine Invasion", which is roughly a sequel to VALIS), which I recommend as well. PKD was an utterly brilliant, fascinating, and sadly broken man.
