I have a confession. I sometimes pick up books just to read for sake of reading. On days when my head refuse to let any information in, I want books which are light, fun and forgettable. 'Forgettable' is the important part here. Read and forget about it. No staring at wall, trying to gather your feelings about the book. And when I find myself tired of reading those as well, I switch to Graphic Novels. Marvel at graphics and sometimes story, that's about it.
This week has been one of those. After 2 stars forgettable books, I turned my attention to Graphic section of library. I picked this one just because of the title. (Novel was already on my shelf, waiting to be read) And boy, did I pick right? Loved it. Adored it. Sat there, going through it again, Just to absorb it. I love it when any book surprises me. I thought it would be 3 stars, but now I find myself looking for vol2. So glad I picked it up and so thankful that it got me out of reading slump.

This is an interesting extension of Dick's novel in prequel form. This is only half of the prequel, however, with volume 2 picking up the rest. As this gets you to the midway point of the story, I am intrigued and looking forward to hopping into the next volume. However, it should be noted that this isn't quite as deep or thought-provoking as DADOES was, but it has some good elements that go beyond your usual run-of-the-mill sci-fi graphic novel tropes.
