Summary
The Hunter or the Hunted? A Sci-Fi Nightmare
World War Terminus devastated Earth. Bounty hunter Rick Deckard navigates the ruins, hunting rogue replicants.
When not “retiring” them, he dreams of owning a live animal – a symbol of status in a world devoid of life.
An assignment to eliminate six Nexus-6 targets promises a huge reward. But the mission spirals into a nightmare of deceit, threatening to turn the hunter into the hunted.

Critics Review
One of the most original practitioners writing any kind of fiction, Dick made most of the European avant-garde seem like navel-gazers in a cul-de-sac
A marvellous book. - Brian Aldiss.
