O ovoj e-knjizi

Delve into the mind-bending world of Philip K. Dick's Shell Game, a crucial piece from the master of psychological science fiction who brought us cult classics such as Blade Runner, Total Recall, and Minority Report.

In this gripping short story, a group of mentally unwell patients find themselves stranded on an alien planet after the robot-controlled spaceship transporting them crash lands. Convinced they are under constant attack by alien forces or possible human adversaries, the patients struggle to find answers to their bizarre predicament. Faced with their own paranoia and unsettling memories, their endless quest for truth leads to dangerous infighting and unsettling discoveries.

Exploring the relationship between reality and delusion, Dick weaves a tale that begs the question: how can we trust our own judgment when everything we know becomes uncertain? Shell Game showcases the genius of Philip K. Dick's imagination, skillfully blending speculative fiction with profound psychological depth. Frequented by intentional chaos and extreme uncertainty, this story will captivate the most avid sci-fi enthusiasts and fans of pulp fiction.
