My God, he wrote a lot

I think A Scanner Darkly is much above average for him. He took time on it (i.e. not blasting it out in 2 months on amphetamines) and it shows.

i started with Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, because i`ve had seen Blade Runner and wanted to know the source material, really good, some feelings triggers here and there.

i would actually recommend that you start with a volume of his short stories (doesn't matter which one--the first one, i guess, since i think they are all published in a convenient set of 5 volumes)

Dick is more of an idea man than a character-development or complex-plot or evocative prose man. i love many of his novels but his short stories convey his ideas in a succinct but sufficient way.

I'm a pleb so I've only read some of his short stories, I liked Second Variety and Beyond Lies the Wub.

Valis

Veeky Forums has a boner for Valis. It gets overly recommended.

I liked Ubik and Do Androids Dream, when I read them ages ago. I thought MITHC was boring af.

>I'm sure it's all good,
certainly not

but almost half of it is

Literally any of his more well-known and good novels.

The Simulacra
Ubik
Valis
Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?
A Scanner Darkly
Martian Time Slip
The Game-Players of Titan
The Man in the High Castle
Galactic Pot Healer (unfortunately not about someone healing people with pot, but about a person who repairs broken pots)
etc.
