    The master of the High Castle (Paperback)
    I imagine that when the book came out, it had to be a revolution. Now that SF has become a classic, and there was a show on Nazism week, it's less exciting. The alternate history is very interesting, but nothing further. It remains clearly on our hun

    The master of the High Castle (Paperback)
    Well written, boring. For those who want a taste, or do not wish to read, the book is adapted into series, whose pilot is available on the VOD platform amazon. Do not expect a carbon copy, however.

    A story that is cold in the back. For me the most "evil" is more good the story is good. Who more "evil" than the Nazis.

    The master of the High Castle (Paperback)
    One of the best books of Dick, who received the Hugo Award in 1962, and the least that can be said is that even today he kept all his eloquence. From the point of view that Germany, Italy and Japan wins the war, Dick just can not imagine another real

  • K Dick I love you!  

    The master of the High Castle (Paperback)
    Very very good book. Maybe one of the most successful of the author. But the exercise of alternate history is not easy! I will say nothing of the plot. Apart from the "historical" context, I do not know her at all and it was all the better. K Di
  • A staple of science fiction alternate history !!!

  • One of Dick tops  

    The master of the High Castle (Paperback)
    In 1962, Dick invents Uchronie (Dick invented many things, but we do not yet perceived in). But it goes much further than that. The alternate history is not the purpose here. Behind the scenes, there are labels, models: a reality is as good as anothe

  • Dick is not a classical author!  

    The master of the High Castle (Paperback)
    Do not take a dick for a Silverberg, for example. Philip K. Dick was a tormented man, addicted to amphetamines, particularly marked by anguish and German philosophy (Kant, Hegel, Nietzsche). So there's rarely home: linear stories with heroes, ships e
  • Uchronie K. Dick  

    The master of the High Castle (Paperback)
    One of the most readable works of K. Dick, who tries to alternate history but can not help them to add elements that are dear to him as a reality parralèlle etc ... Certainly one of the best works
