jwilsey 's review for:
The Man in the High Castle
by Philip K. Dick
I really wanted to like this, but ultimately it wasn't a very enjoyable read for me. Having been introduced to Philip K. Dick through "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" which I absolutely loved, I was really excited to read this novel. Despite the interesting premise, I never really got engaged in any of the storylines. The writing itself was excellent, and some of the ides that Dick present within were interesting, but the story itself fell short. The two-star rating feels a bit harsh, but I don't think it warrants a three-star rating relative to my personal preferences.
Overall, an interesting novel with some thought-provoking ideas, but it wasn't presented in a way that resinated with me. I'd still recommend this book as I'm sure there are many people out there that will both appreciate and enjoy this novel.
