All I have read is "Man in the High Castle" and it blew me away. It takes place in an alternate history of the U.S. where in WWII the Nazis won, and split the U.S. down the middle with Japan. Its also about antiques. Has a really wild ending as well.

Ubik and A Scanner Darkly are probably the best. I wouldn't bother with High Castle at all. Ubik is really tense and filled with [probably] amphetamine fueled fever dream madness. |
Why did you not like Man in the High Castle?
Also, I've only seen A Scanner Darkly: The Movie, and thought it blew, blew big time. So its sort of disheartening to hear that the book fallows it. Does the character that Robert Downey jr. play make you want to huck the book out the window like I wanted with the DVD? Or does just the ending and the character Woody Harrelson play make you wanna do that?
