re: pedantry
You know, I knew I'd gotten that wrong,but it was a long day yesterday and couldn't be arsed. heh.

On the PkD front, I think the best of his work is The Man In The High Castle, but it loses the plot slightly in about the last four or five pages when he kinda goes "well, you've really enojyed the premise of the book, so let's just make it all out as a bit of someone's imagination and get rid of all those awkward plotholes" - now I tend to stop reading before then, as it spoils the book in my mind. It was the literary equivalent of when they brought back Bobby Ewing in Dallas or beamed that woman up into a UFO to get rid of her (Alexis' nemesis? I can't remember, I was too young, but even then it seemed ridiculous)...
