Philip K. Dick
A mind-bending, classic Philip K. Dick novel about the perception of reality.
Named as one of Time's 100 best books.
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. As consumables deteriorate and technology gets ever more primitive, the group needs to find out what is causing the shifts and what a mysterious product called Ubik has to do with it all.

Reseñas de la Crítica
Featured Article: The Most Stellar Sci-Fi Authors of All Time
Science fiction is a genre as diverse as you can imagine. There are stories that take place in deep space, often depicting teams exploring or running away from something; stories that focus on life at the most cellular level, such as a pandemic tale; and stories that take place in times that feel similar to our own. Depicting themes of existentialism, philosophy, hubris, and personal and historical trauma, sci-fi has a cadre of topics and moods.

Weird

My criticism is more that the story kind of meanders a bit and I felt like too much time passes between something being set up and paying off in the story. I won’t spoil anything specific, but a good example of this is the reveal of the antagonist in a very late chapter followed by what feels like a rush to a climax. So much time had passed and the character was given so little attention that I just felt like the reveal was a big, “who cares?”. There’s no reason to feel anything positive for this character so you don’t feel shocked, but there’s also no reason to feel anything negative towards him and his motivations other than the book seems to insist that he’s obviously bad. We just don’t know anything about him one way or the other and his actions seem ultimately inconsequential, as do the protagonist’s. Maybe that’s the point? I can accept it if the book is making a point about the ultimate futility of any action in the grand scheme of things, I personally just end up not caring about what happens to the characters in that case. Why should we? We aren’t really given any reason to.
I also found the different voices and accents distracting. This is a personal preference, but I prefer when a narrator simply reads the book as opposed to trying to put on silly voices to differentiate the characters. It can be jarring when you are listening to a third person perspective that becomes a radio play every time a character other than the protagonist speaks.
It’s still worth a read (or listen) it’s just not up there with my favorites. It’s unlikely that I would feel the desire to go back to it but I was entertained enough the first time through.
Worth a read/listen but I found it just “ok”
