The Transmigration of Timothy Archer

Humane, sad, human & engrossing. Dick went out on a creative high. Deals with lead character Angel Archer's involvement with Bishop Archer (and marriage to his son) and his religious & existential unorthodoxy from the late 1960s to 1980 CE. Brilliantly handled in characters & tone. As an atheist it was mind-blowing (in an awesome way). I cried.

It's OK

Meh, not as good as the rest of the Valis series.

This is a strange book but really interesting if you are, like me, fascinated by the religious side of PKD's writing. It is the third part of his VALIS trilogy, a trilogy unique in that none of the books relate to each other in any way except for their religious theme. If, like me, you are an atheist you might be put off but don't be. In fact you will probably be even more interested...
