I loved it. It kept me glued to my desk chair for hours and hours.

My copy is still sitting on the shelf waiting to be opened.

I just got the Philip K Dick Reader which is a book of his short stories, most of which became major movies. Like Total Recal, Screamers, Paycheck, Minority Report and several others. Of course some of the titles of the stories are different than the movies so I'm not sure what other movies were based on his work.

I just read the very short story called Fair Game in which a nuclear physicist who is the oldest and smartest in his field suddenly see a giant eye looking at him through his living room window. Then it withdraws and disappears. He tells his collegues about it but they don't know what to make of it. One professor suggests beings from another universe or dimension.

After telling them he thinks "They" are after him and he runs outside where he sees something like an etherical net-like thing in the sky and the entire face of some being. He drives off for the whole night. The whole way he keeps seeing things that are set up to try to lure him. Like a bar of gold, a diner with good smelling food. These things aren't really there though.

Then the net appears again and it snatches him up and he takes off into the sky. He thinks it's all great because they want such a knowlegable man such as him. He thinks they want to collaborate and share knowlege but when the heavens part and he sees the beings he hears them comment on the great catch they've got and how he put up a good fight. Then he sees something under him that is made of metal and is flat. It looks like a frying pan. The end.
