Daniel Learmouth (daniellearmouth) | 2 comments Hello. This is a request to add a newly published edition of the book 'Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?' by Philip K. Dick.

* Title: Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?
* Author: Philip K. Dick
* ISBN: 978-1-399-60774-2
* Publisher: Orion Publishing Co
* Publication date: 27th October 2022
* Format: Paperback
* Page count: 208 pages

* Description:
World War Terminus devastated the Earth. Through its ruins, bounty hunter Rick Deckard searches for the renegade replicants he is sent to ‘retire’, while he dreams of owning a live animal – the ultimate status symbol in a world all but bereft of natural life.

The opportunity of a lifetime: kill six Nexus-6 targets, for a huge reward. But in Deckard’s world things aren’t that simple, and his assignment turns into a nightmare kaleidoscope of subterfuge and deceit – and the hunter becomes the hunted . . .

Voted in a Locus poll as one of the 100 pre-1990 SF Novels, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep spawned two blockbuster movies. Philip K. Dick won multiple awards for his works, examining human identity, psychology, conspiracy and paranoia, challenging the idea of objective truth in a manner that remains relevant today.

‘A masterclass in sci-fi wonderment’ – Empire
‘One of the most original practitioners writing any kind of fiction’ – The Sunday Times
Welcome to The Best Of The Masterworks: a selection of the finest in science fiction

Kane | 96 comments I've added this for you. If you could add (Done) to the thread title to help other librarians, that would be appreciated. Thank you!
(I have added it as a new edition, but due to the amount it may take a while for it to appear with the rest of them)
