crackityjones 's review for:
The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch
by Philip K. Dick
One time I got into a drunken argument with a friend about whether PKD or Ayn Rand is a better author. I was actually arguing for Ayn Rand because some of the scenes in The Fountainhead were nice, or anyway her writing did a good job illustrating her point, and as much as I love PKD I usually don't think his writing is very good.
This was really well written though. The characters were more realized than in some of his other fiction; the dialogue tended towards exposition a couple of times but for the most part it was pretty good. So anyway, drunk self, you were wrong about PKD and should probably apologize to your friends for yelling at them about books all of the time.
Anyway the plot in this book is off the charts. I might give up on other authors and just read everything PKD for a while.
