À propos de cet e-book

From the visionary mind of Philip K. Dick, author of sci-fi classics that inspired blockbusters like Blade Runner, Total Recall, and Minority Report, comes Beyond Lies the Wub, a masterful exploration of paranoia, suspense, and mind-bending cosmic revelations.

Peterson, a crew member on a spaceship resupplying on Mars, encounters the intriguing wub, an enormous pig-like creature with hidden depths. As they venture off the Martian landscape, the crew realizes that the wub is far more intelligent than they could have ever imagined, possessing telepathic powers and even the potential for mind control. Embark on a journey like no other as conversations unfold between Peterson and the wub about mythology, the epic travels of Odysseus, and the very boundaries of consciousness. Tensions rise as Captain Franco, tormented by paranoia, develops a fearful obsession with the wub; putting the entire crew's safety, loyalties, and understanding of reality at risk.

In the tradition of pulp fiction and speculative fiction titans, Dick weaves a suspenseful tale that will keep sci-fi enthusiasts on the edge of their seats. Unearth the true power of the enigmatic wub in this captivating cosmic adventure that explores the thin line between humanity's compassion and destructive tendencies.
