Philip Dick Omnibus: Three Early Novels

'The Man Who Japed', 'Dr Futurity' and 'Vulcan's Hammer'

At the beginning of his career, Philip K Dick, whose work later won him widespread acclaim as the world's greatest sf writer, wrote a number of short novels which were published as paperback originals back-to-back in dual volumes with works by writers who were then more famous. Considerably more straightforward than his later novels, these stories are nevertheless unmistakably the work of the author of 'Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?' and 'Ubik' in their quirky exuberance and originality.
