First...if you ARE looking at this because you liked the TV adaptation...the book story bears virtually no similarity to the TV story. There are characters that are in both, but the plot (if one can call it that) is only similar in that it is an alternate history story where America lost WWII...past that...not much else. The plot itself is about as interesting as watching paint dry...it meanders at a docile pace through the daily and exceedingly mundane lives of the characters. The writing style is frequently incoherent and hard to follow as though the author were simply writing down every random thought that popped into his head...regardless of their actual importance or relevance to the story itself. If you are a die hard PKD fan...than maybe this one is for you...other than that...a tabloid news paper would be more entertaining!Read full review

A good book but challenging. Not a summer beach book but worth the effort. Better than the Amazon tv series.

This is one of PKD's best stories of alternative history. The axis powers win the war and divide America into spheres of influence.

I've read most of Dick's books, and this has always been my favorite.
