The complete list of Sci-Fi novels by Philip K. Dick

On Saturday, I mentioned that I’ve been reading Philip K. Dick’s classic science fiction novel, “Blade Runner,” which is also known by the title of “Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?”. I followed that with a list of all of the novels that have won the Philip K. Dick Award, which has been given annually since Dick’s death in 1982. (The fact that there’s an award for best sci-fi novel given in Dick’s honor every year goes to show how influential he was in the field.)
Dick published 36 novels during his short lifetime, and many of his novels and short stories have been made into major motion pictures (Blade Runner, Total Recall, Minority Report, Paycheck, A Scanner Darkly, etc., etc.).
Without further ado, here’s a complete list of Dick’s 36 published novels, in order of publication date:
- Gather Yourselves Together, 1950
