Edward Tolby and his daughter are members of a legendary militant group--The League--that helped to bring down the corrupt and misguided governments of the past, placing humanity on its path to a free, ruler-less society. Always on the lookout for groups trying to organize and stratify, Tolby and his companions encounter a powerful remnant of the old world. Philip K. Dick was an American science-fiction novelist, short-story writer and essayist. His first short story, "Beyond Lies the Wub," was published shortly after his high school graduation. Some of his most famous short stories were adapted for film, including "The Minority Report," "Paycheck," "Second Variety" (adapted into the film Screamers) and "We Can Remember It For You Wholesale" (adapted into the film Total Recall). HarperCollins brings great works of literature to life in digital format, upholding the highest standards in ebook production and celebrating reading in all its forms.

A story about a future world centuries after governments have been toppled world-wide. What passes for organization is this anarchist collective called 'The Agency'. Agents are sent to investigate rumors that a state still exists, a final hold-out of the hierarchical governments of centuries ago. They have been sent to destroy it.

4/5 stars. I was not aware that PKD was this outright political. I consider this now one of my favorite left-ish political sci-fi along with 'The Dispossessed' by Le Guin. The politics of nation-states as well as the use of espionage reminds me of the novel 'Europe in Autumn' by Dave Hutchinson. ( )
