Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? Hardcover - 1975
by Philip K. Dick
Summary
"The most consistently brilliant science fiction writer in the world."--John BrunnerTHE INSPIRATION FOR BLADERUNNER. . . Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? was published in 1968. Grim and foreboding, even today it is a masterpiece ahead of its time.By 2021, the World War had killed millions, driving entire species into extinction and sending mankind off-planet. Those who remained coveted any living creature, and for people who couldn't afford one, companies built incredibly realistic simulacrae: horses, birds, cats, sheep. . . They even built humans.Emigrees to Mars received androids so sophisticated it was impossible to tell them from true men or women. Fearful of the havoc these artificial humans could wreak, the government banned them from Earth. But when androids didn't want to be identified, they just blended in. Rick Deckard was an officially sanctioned bounty hunter whose job was to find rogue androids, and to retire them. But cornered, androids tended to fight back, with deadly results."[Dick] sees all the sparkling and terrifying possibilities. . . that other authors shy away from."--Paul Williams Rolling StoneFrom the Trade Paperback edition.
First line
A merry little surge of electricity piped by automatic alarm from the mood organ beside his bed awakened Rick Deckard.

Description:
1975 hardcover as pictured. The Philip K Dick classic that was the inspiration for "Blade Runner". This is a 1975 reissue of the 1968 original with an introduction by Roger Zelazny and cover art by Bruce Jensen. Binding is firm. Black boards with gold stamping are clean and show minimal edge wear. Text appears clean and unmarked. Dust jacket is complete showing light edge wear and a 4mm tear at top of spine. Would be as very good aside from shelf wear.
