Others: MixedVALIS is the first book in Philip K. Dick's incomparable final trio of novels (the others being The Divine Invasion and The Transmigration of Timothy Archer). This disorienting and bleakly funny work is about a schizophrenic hero named Horselover Fat; the hidden mysteries of Gnostic Christianity; and reality as revealed through a pink laser. VALIS is a theological detective story, in which God is both a missing person and the perpetrator of the ultimate crime.

Others: Mostly positiveThe year is 2100 A.D.… And Man no longer stands alone in the universe. Now there are other worlds, other living beings. Alien beings who mate in threes and live on pure energy. New breeds of humans who have created their own environment and freed themselves from every social and sexual taboo. Yes, it is the future of new worlds, ever-changing worlds. And yet among them there is still Earth. Earth, where Man still strives to be the best. To advance himself beyond all other beings and their worlds. And this final, glorious step in mankind’s technical progress has been achieved: the discovery of an unlimited, non-polluting energy source. But what seems to be progress may, in reality, end in complete tragedy. Earth’s unlimited energy source is about to trigger unlimited destruction—and the end of a universe.

Loved it
Not a fanI Am Legend is full of piss-taking vampires or zombies or zampires and Will Smith.
Review 1 of 2
Loved itI thought was good... It's surprisingly brutal. It's surprisingly graphic. It is surprisingly horny... I would give it like a seven out of 10.
MixedI'm going to put this in decent, but hear me out. There's high points. I think he's a great writer.
Loved itI fell in love this book because of the main character he's definitely like a manly man and maybe he'll rub some people the wrong way but I loved him because he was so determined to find a scientific sound explanation that was logical as for the reason that these vampires exist.
