A lot of people who like his stuff also enjoy cyberpunk though, so I was wondering if you're into the genre. William Gibson's Neuromancer, Neal Stephenson's Snow Crash, and Richard K. Morgan's Takeshi Kovacs series all have that sort of gritty surrealism I found interesting.

I came here to suggest Neuromancer and Snowcrash, so right on friend These two are kind of the granddaddies of cyberpunk. Neuromancer is full of very vivid characters and just truly amazing world building. It has the same gritty, underground vibe as Electric Sheep. Snowcrash is so much fun to read. It's, basically, about virtual reality but includes a ton of that cyberpunk imagery. The plot is also just really exciting, it was on of those books I just couldn't put down.starshipsaga wrote: ↑07 Feb 2018, 14:19 It's always tough for me to recommend anything to other Philip K. Dick fans because as we all know he has his own very distinct style that few have succeeded in emulating, and he's very much his own bizarre genre
