A masterwork by Philip K. Dick, this is the final, expanded version of the novel
lla THE UNTELEPORTED MAN, which Dick worked on shortly before his death. In LIES
, INC., fans of the science fiction legend will immediately recognise his hallma
rk themes of life in a security state, conspiracy, and the blurring of reality a
nd illusion.
In this wry, paranoid vision of the future, overpopulation has t
urned cities into crammed industrial anthills. For those sick of this dystopian
reality, one corporation, Trails of Hoffman, Inc., promises an alternative: Take
a teleport to Whale's Mouth, a colonized planet billed as the supreme paradise.
The only catch is that you can never come back.
