4.0 out of 5 stars Good but still somehow lacking, Mar 8 2004
By Shaun M. Joye (Rochester NY) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Philip K Dick Is Dead (Tp) (Paperback)
This book is defenately worth reading but I do feel the need to write a slightly more critical review. Having read a lot of Dick's work this by comparison is disturbingly sane. I understand Michael Bishop was not trying to emulate, Dick, but, in that case, I would have liked to have seen something a little more original, something that explored and pushed the boundries of the way we see the world. Dick had a way of writing things that would toy with the reader and provoke them, of building up to something with logical and intelligent insite and then going right off the deep end. I miss that.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book is Not Dead, Alas!, May 21 2001
By Mike Varela (West Haven, CT USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Philip K Dick Is Dead (Tp) (Paperback)
Excellent pastiche on P.K. Dick and some of his characters. Though undeniably liberal and anti conservative in political overtones, it can be forgiven because the story is cute.

4.0 out of 5 stars Is PKD really dead?, Jun 23 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Philip K Dick Is Dead (Tp) (Paperback)
Somewhere somewhen PKD is morphing into Michael Bishop, classical music rolling into words on the keyboard. If you've read all of PKD's works and are jones-ing for more, check this out. And as our media crazed society increasingly resembles one of PKD's novels, don't we need all the help we can get?

This is not only a tribute to Philip K. Dick - my favorite author - but also written in his exact style. It's uncanny.
