currently reading...
Big PKD fan - to the pint of obsession. Must read everything he has written and everything written about him. I also like old books.
I picked up this edition in Port Moresby back in 2001. Now I am reading it - though I have read most of the stories before.
How many PKD stories have been made into movies?
Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep --> Bladerunner : great dark movie with wonderful photography.
Paycheck --> Paycheck : So-so...
We Can Remember It For You Wholesale --> Total Recall : I suppose this movies stands on it's own OK as a quirky SF/action flick, but it leaves out the main pint of the book - ie - the mice... (you'll have to read it)
A Scanner Darkly - I haven't read it or seen the movie. I think I really must read it first.... Will try and find the book tomorrow.

The movie is pretty faithful to the book, so if you liked the book you won't be disappointed.
