What makes Ubik schizo tier?

>> No.22162185

>>22162176
Nothing, it’s odd but it’s not even dick’s most schizo book (that’s valis by a country mile)
Also if you’re gonna read Sam-approved sci-fi you should read some gene Wolfe instead

>> No.22162263

>>22162251
He just mentions his name but in one video he does talk about Past Master by RA Lafferty, saying it’s a special book for him and Charls
