À propos de cet audio

 The classic sci-fi novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, which inspired two major motion pictures: Blade Runner and Blade Runner 2049

By 2021, the World War has killed millions, driving entire species into extinction and sending mankind off-planet. Those who remain covet any living creature, and for people who can’t afford one, companies build incredibly realistic simulacra: horses, birds, cats, sheep. They’ve even built humans. Immigrants to Mars receive androids so sophisticated they are indistinguishable from true men or women. Fearful of the havoc these artificial humans can wreak, the government bans them from Earth. Driven into hiding, unauthorized androids live among human beings, undetected. Rick Deckard, an officially sanctioned bounty hunter, is commissioned to find rogue androids and “retire” them. But when cornered, androids fight back—with lethal force.

I loved it. I'm a fan of post-apocalyptic dystopian fiction and this is almost as good as Margaret Atwood's MaddAddam trilogy.

This book is HEAVY, but it's well worth reading. Themes of what it means to be human, what is "real" vs what is "artificial", examination of religion, examination of societal expectations, the value and nature of life, and the limits of the human experience.

I'm going to listen to it again because I want to see how much more I can get out of it.

Scott Brick is my favourite narrator and he knocks this one out of the park!

This is a WILD ride!

I always enjoy the dichotomy between Rick and Phil and how they view the occupation.

Classic Science fiction

The narrator makes this the best way to enjoy this book. the characters, voices, and pacing are all superb. This production feels as much like a radio drama as a novel. I'm a massive fan of the author and of this particular story. This is my favorite version of Deckards struggles.

Better than the novel

Starts strong, story is very good from start to about 3/4 through but the ending somewhat drags out and is a bit anti-climatic.

narration is good and he has a good voice for a cop/detective type story but the narration of the female characters is a bit obnoxious and annoying after a while that might be partially to do with the story though.

Good story decent narration

I'm going to stop saying"," "I didn't like it" when I really mean that a novel disturbed me. Most of Philip K. Dick's work has that effect on me"," possibly because his stories are both bleak and prophetic. I had to re-read this after watching the Blade Runner films. Now I have to watch the movies again, because there's so much subtext I missed that may derive from the novel.

This book asks the question, "what does it mean to be human?" and, like so many of Philip Dick's stories, implies many more questions. There are no good answers.

Am I human?
