Heh yeah I've read Phillip K. Dick books, I'm a pretty big fan of his, from "Do Androids dream of Electric Sheep" to "the Man in The High Castle"  He is a very goo author if you enjoy having stories in which you have to re-read multiple times in order to understand.

Great! I've now read about 15 of his novels and two or three short story anthologies. At the moment I'm trying to get into his very late work, though I'm not sure whether I'm really ready for it. I think I like the entertaining novels that only hint at PKD's experiences more than the very heavy, openly autobiographic material.

My favourites are at the same time the ones I would first recommend to a new reader: Eye in the Sky, The World Jones Made, Flow my Tears the Policeman said (all early works).
