I bought The Man In The High Castle today. I am slowly building my complete P.K. Dick library. Does anyone have a favorite novel of his?

Also, has anyone read the new collection of Alfred Bester's short work? He's praised by all sorts of people, and I did enjoy The Stars My Destination, but I was hoping someone could tell me something specific about...uh...Redemolished, I think it's called.

No, no, not the novel. Redemolished is the title of a newly released collection of Bester's short stories. I was wondering if anyone had ever read any of them.

I have the Philip K. Dick reader... It's my favorite Dick book (i hate typing that, doesn't look right) because it has so many different stories in it.

Individual favorite book is probably Ubik. Maybe Valis. I like his weirder shit.
