Reading Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?
How is it? PKD is the one author I'm always meaning to read, but never do.
It's no Blade Runner, but it has it's moments.
I actually view it as sort of an alternate universe. The ideas presented can be extremely different. Maybe it's also because I saw the movie after reading the book. Essential for BR fans. Just don't really go into the two book sequels. They're not really good because they try to bridge the film and book. Case in point: Roy Batty comes back as a briefcase. No joke.
Currently I'm rereading Robert Ludlum's Bourne Tirlogy for the first time in years. These books are nothing like the awful films. In fact, I'd definitely say The Bourne Identity is one of the best spy novels ever written. The Bourne Supremacy is also as good as I remembered. Now on The Bourne Ultimatum which doesn't pack quite the same punch as the other two.
