The twenty-five marvellously varied pieces were written between 1963 and 1981, just a few months before he died, and includes the title story, which was turned into the worldwide box office hit film Total Recall.

Minority Report
The fourth volume of the definitive five-book set of the complete collected stories of the twentieth century's greatest sf author covers a wide span, from Late 1954 through to1963. Those were the years during which Dick began writing novels prolifically and his short story output lessened. The title story of this collection is being made into the Steven Spielberg-directed movie of the same name, while‘The Days of Perky Pat’ inspired one of Dick’s greatest works, the novel The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch; The Penultimate Truth grew from ‘The Mold of Yancy’. Philip K. Dick is shown at his incomparable prime in this stunning collection.

Second Variety
The second volume of the definitive five-book set of the complete collected stories of the twentieth century's greatest sf author includes such masterpieces as the title story, with its endless war being fought by ever more cunning and sophisticated robot weapons, and "impostor", where a man accused of being an alien spy finds his whole identity called into question. In these twenty-seven stories, written and published while America was in the grip of McCarthyism. Philip K. Dick speaks up for ordinary people and against militarism, paranoia and xenophobia - and always in his own marvellously varied, quirky and entertainingly idiosyncratic style.
