Über diesen Titel

 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.

IMO the very best SciFi story ever written... while other authors focus on technology, PKD analyzes the effects the technology has on people (and androids), which is far more interesting and fascinating. A must for SciFi enthusiasts

PKD at its best

Supremely read, the story takes you to a depressive future, where you never know for sure what's real.

Dark but classic

do androids dream of electric sheep is one of the Best Books I ever heard, it's a great recording and it's a must read if you liked the movies, the story is completely different but it's a deep and enjoyable story.
some parts are predictable, but that's no problem for the story and is not caused by bad plot twist.
but don't expect the author to explain anything, you need to listen and form your own conclusions.

one of the Best books eher writen

A wonderful story of a dystopian future from the past. Philip truly loved writing this book, it can be felt in every chapter.
There was no dull moment for me, not once did I want to stop listening to Scott Brick narrating this masterpiece. Perfect impersonification of all the characters, Isador's most of all.
It was a rather short, but completely full of everything story; of the kind that I love the most.. no true hero, no right or wrong, just another side of the coin.
I never saw the movies that came from this book, but knew about them. Since I'm a great Audiobook lover, I decided to listen to the book before watching them; great decision.
I'll listen to this again, no doubt. I recommend it to everyone that enjoys "real" stories about something that could be.

Wonderful
