Deal Details
Various Retailers have Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? by Philip K Dick (eBook) on sale for $1.99.

Thanks to Deal Hunter phoinix for finding this deal.

Available:About this title:
  • Print Length: 229 pages
  • The inspiration for the films Blade Runner and Blade Runner 2049
  • By 2021, the World War has killed millions, driving entire species into extinction and sending mankind off-planet. Those who remain covet any living creature, and for people who can't afford one, companies built incredibly realistic simulacra: horses, birds, cats, sheep. They've even built humans. Immigrants to Mars receive androids so sophisticated they are indistinguishable from true men or women. Fearful of the havoc these artificial humans can wreak, the government bans them from Earth. Driven into hiding, unauthorized androids live among human beings, undetected. Rick Deckard, an officially sanctioned bounty hunter, is commissioned to find rogue androids and 'retire' them. But when cornered, androids fight back - with lethal force.

That's why we should administer the Voight-Kampff test to all authors before accepting their work.

You're in a desert, walking along in the sand, when all of a sudden you look down and see a tortoise. It's crawling toward you. You reach down, and you flip the tortoise over on its back.

The tortoise lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over, but it can't. Not without your help. But you're not helping.

Why is that?

According to the reviews on that one it's false advertising and only has one Phillip K Dick story in a sampler of other authors.

It's kind of weird that somebody gave you a thumbs down, but you should keep in mind that the movie is "loosely-inspire" by the book, and there are quite a few differences. Both the movie and the book are classic sci-fi works, but two very distinct things.
