So there’s a question I’ve been having for a while now: Why is Ubki, from Philip K Dick so popular ? I’ve read it, and was pretty disappointed. The scenario starts pretty well, but becomes very obvious amongst the rest of the book, there’s little no to connection between the scenes, everything seems to have no relation, the final characters (Ella and Joe) are barely introduced, the resolution (Ubki’s provenance) is barely explained, …

Overall, I feel like I’ve read a really good scenario idea from a great author, but it feels like a missed opportunity; I’m left feeling unsatisfied.

    I read it and recall enjoying it, but it’s far from my favorite PKD, and I honestly don’t remember much about it.
