Dick has been introduced to a wide audience by the success of the films Blade Runner and Minority Report 'Dick quietly produced serious fiction in a popular form and there can be no greater praise' Michael Moorcock 'Dick's abundant storytelling gifts and the need to express his inner struggles combined to produce some of the most groundbreaking novels and idea to emerge from SF' Waterstone's Guide to Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror 'It's beginning to look as though greatness has been thrust upon Philip K. Dick ... [He] has chosen to handle material too nutty to accept, too admonitory to forget, too haunting to abandon' Washington Post
