I enjoyed this but for it being one of Dick's most acclaimed novels I was somewhat let down. I really prefer the speculative parts of this to the more metaphysical/mystical ones, which is what the main thrust of the novel ends up being. Still, conjures up interesting images, particularly when talking about the new caste systems and the Nazi actions in Africa
