A review by derhindemith
The Divine Invasion by Philip K. Dick
5.0
A friend told me that Valis and The Divine Invasion are sold in Italy together. I see that now. It makes complete sense. The Divine Invasion completes the story begun in Valis.
I would even go so far as to call Valis a religious novel masquerading as science fiction; and The Divine Invasion science fiction masquerading as a religious novel.
One thing is true of both, they distort reality in so many ways and so many times that it eventually becomes a moot point which world is the real world because Jehovah causes all of them to be real. It's kind of a cop-out, however, because we don't get resolution on the other worlds.
