Etienne Barillier Knihy

Svetová vojna zabila milióny ľudí, premenila Zem na nehostinné miesto a vyhnala preživších na iné planéty. Nové svety pomáhajú osídľovať androidi na nerozoznanie od skutočných mužov a žien. Vláda sa však obáva, že by mohli spôsobiť spúšť, a tak ich na Zemi zakáže. Niektorým sa však podarí utiecť z otroctva a ilegálne sa vrátiana Zem. Nájomného lovca Ricka Deckarda poveria úlohou zbehov nájsť a eliminovať. Je však spravodlivé zabíjať humanoidov len preto, že nie sú ľudia?

It was the delusion of a burned out case, caused by the death of a friend, a shattered marriage and too many drugs. It began with a blinding light, a divine revelation from a mysterious intelligence that called itself VALIS . And with that the fabric of reality was ripped open and laid bare so that anything seemed possible but nothing seemed quite right. It was madness pure and simple. But what if it were true? VALIS , the disorienting and eerily funny centrepiece of Dick's final trilogy (which includes The Divine Invasion and The Transmigration of Timothy Archer ), is part science fiction, part theological detective story - in which God plays both missing person and the perpetrator of the ultimate crime.
