On Mars, the harsh climate could make any colonist turn to drugs to escape a dead-end existence. Especially when the drug is Can-D, which transports its users into the idyllic world of a Barbie-esque character named Perky Pat. When the mysterious Palmer Eldritch arrives with a new drug called Chew-Z, he offers a more addictive experience, one that might bring the user closer to God. But in a world where everyone is tripping, no promises can be taken at face value.

Glen Runciter runs a lucrative business - deploying his teams of anti-psychics to corporate clients who want privacy and security from psychic spies. But when he and his top team are ambushed by a rival, he is gravely injured and placed in "half-life," a dreamlike state of suspended animation. Soon, though, the surviving members of the team begin experiencing some strange phenomena, such as Runciter's face appearing on coins and the world seeming to move backward in time.

Editorial Reviews

It's nearly impossible to talk about science fiction without talking about Philip K. Dick. Even if one hasn't devoured any of his books, Hollywood has given his novels and short stories countless treatments. This audiobook, performed with a delightful vigor by Cindy Hardin Killavey, is a window to where it all started for the master of sci-fi. Beyond Lies the Wub is the first published piece from Dick and is the story of a space crew who, while visiting Mars, buy an enormous, seemingly oafish space creature known as a "wub". As the creature's intelligence is slowly revealed, however, tensions rise and the crew must decide what to do with the sensitive wub.

Publisher's Summary

"Beyond Lies the Wub" was Philip K. Dick's first published story and appeared in Planet Stories magazine. In it, a crew takes an alien aboard their ship but the alien's appearance belies its intelligence and powers.
