Read Aimtek Legend of Dod 1.3 Story, as much I know he has been the best player over the internet for as long I remember. Carrying every team I was on, making every dream comes true. This is my MAN!

My favorite PKD story by far was A Scanner Darkly though (probably because I saw the movie prior to discovering PKD's writing). I met a girl on a plane who told me that I should read The Man in the High Castle, after arriving I ordered it and then immediately got hooked on all of PKD's writing. That also introduced me to Vonnegut as they kind of go hand in hand for science fiction from the second half of the twentieth century.

I ended up choosing Nexus to read, as Josh said it is a pretty hard science fiction story but I am enjoying it. I appreciate all of the recommendations though, it is fun to hear what everyone else likes to read. I have toiled with the idea of reading the Ender's game series and think I may add those to my list of wanting to read as well.
PKD's work really did add a certain seriousness to the genre that I think was lacking from the left's perspective. There have been good writers before, Heinlein, Clarke, and Asimov for sure, but I don't think they get close to the depth Dick wrote with.

The Man in the High Castle is delightful.

You might enjoy Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert Heinlein. I didn't much care for Starship Troopers by him, but Stranger is good.
