Best of PDK's work I've read thus far. I think I enjoyed this more than most people because I have a very good working knowledge of Taoism. If you're interested in reading this novel, I suggest first reading some intro to Taoism book, as the Tao is found through The Man in the High Castle. I think you'll get more out of it that way. My favourite character was Tagomi. I love how PKD wrote his thoughts. His crisis at the end was a page-turner! Least favourite character was Juliana. PKD is terrible at writing female characters because he makes them so one-sided and stereotypical. The Man in the High Castle definitely wasn't what I expected, which I think is what makes it such a great book!
