It was January 2021, and Rick Deckard had a license to kill. Somewhere among the hordes of humans out there, lurked several rogue androids. Deckard's assignment--find them and then..."retire" them. Trouble was, the androids all looked exactly like humans, and they didn't want to be found!

Pew-pew laser action paired with musings about what it means to be human, what a combination of topics we find in this short novel. The plot is interesting enough with a varied pacing - some chapters flow much more slowly than others. The different narrators make things more interesting.

Somehow this book didn't quite catch me the way I had expected it to. It may have been my mood, wrong timing, but it joint found everything in this story "ok". This should not hold you back - I enjoyed reading it, just less than I had anticipated.

Sehr spannendes Buch, tolles Setting und fesselnde, mitreißende Beschreibungen der Charaktere. Leider etwas schwaches Ende.

Switched to audiobook - 2nd read through didn't stick much better than the first, after all

DNF. Trying to read this is like trying to process the damage done to the language parts of the brain in realtime.

[a:Philip K. Dick|4764|Philip K. Dick|http://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1264613853p2/4764.jpg] is one of those writers who employs science fiction story telling to explore themes of philosophical depth. That advanced artificial intelligence could lead us into serious ethical problems is a topic that has certainly been explored before, but what I find special about [b:Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?|7082|Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?|Philip K.

On the one hand it creates sympathy and compassion for androids as repressed beings, that have basically been invented to reintroduce slavery. But on the other hand their purported absence of empathy creates a certain fear of their more or less unpredictable moral behaviour and "inhumanity".

While I also enjoyed the rather dark atmosphere of the book, I found it's overall plot quite confusing.
