Book Review of Valis (Valis, Bk 1)

Valis (Valis, Bk 1)
reviewed on + 70 more book reviews


A wildly comic, richly imagined novel of a man's obsessive vision...of secret ruling intelligences, age-old conspiracies and the Second Coming. A sardonic, transcendent work of madness, courage and love, VALIS shatters the boundaries of science fiction to grapple with the nature of reality itself. It is Philip K. Dick's most compelling work, a testament of rebirth and hope uniquely resonant of our times.
