I'm retarded and don't understand what I just read.

Is part of the point that human life has begun to fragment into gradations (specials, lifeless and cruel people, android-hating killers) alongside the creation of new and imperfect android and mechanical animal life? I was expecting the androids to be more straightforward, with the point of the story being simply that people had rationalized using them as slaves and murdering them because of a technicality (not biologically alive). In the end, there were no straightforward good guys and bad guys obviously, but I'm still not sure how to interpret everything.

Who the fuck was Mercer? What the hell was that whole thing? Why did he become Mercer and barely notice?

Just finished reading this.

Any other books with a cyberpunk thematic worth a read?

Is it really better than the movie?

I'm posting this mostly because I like this cover a lot and want to look at it

PKD books often had cool covers I think

YA writing

Ridiculous. Why was mercerism even included in the book
