Produktinformation
Winner of the 2019 British Book Design and Production Award for Best Cover/JacketJoining The Man in the High Castle and the tête-bêche edition of Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? & A Scanner Darkly, Ubik is an unmissable Folio edition for fans of one of science fiction’s true masters. Time magazine described Philip K. Dick’s Ubik as ‘a deeply unsettling existential horror story’, a masterwork that built something new and altogether stranger out of the glittering foundations of science fiction. It is a novel that wrongfoots the reader at every turn, yet with a deft hand Dick delivers a taut thriller shot through with a gloriously dark sense of humour. ‘The most consistently brilliant SF writer in the world’ John Brunner Inspired by Dick’s ability to break new ground with every story, Folio’ edition of Ubik pushes the boundaries of book design and science-fiction art. Featuring a series of bold hypnotic illustrations by award-winning independent art studio La Boca, this volume is presented in a special die-cut slipcase that combines with the vibrant binding to confuse the eye.

A great treatment for a great novel. I was disappointed when the illustrator didn't pick up on the novel's key sentence but was blown away when I discovered the sentence used brilliantly in a design aspect of the slipcover. Very Philip K. Dick! Bravo La Boca.

Haven't read it yet, but for me the highlights of this edition are the slip case and the binding of the book. It is very satisfying to hold it in your hands, passing your palm over the binding its cover and the spine!

Very interesting (but more fragile) slip case, and more Philip Dick to read!

I own about five different copies of this book and Folio Society's edition is far and away my favorite! There are no issues that I can think of, the materials are top quality, the artwork is beautiful, the slip case is unique and awesome. I wasn't sure how much I would like the bright fuchsia with the green but it has really grown on me!
