About this listen
"It is sometimes an appropriate response to reality to go insane." (Philip K. Dick, VALIS)
Philip K. Dick was a visionary writer. From post-apocalyptic San Francisco to Nazi-occupied America, his strange alternative futures have transfixed the world. But his life was every bit as unusual as his fiction.
A Life of Philip K Dick opens a window into PKD's unique mind. Written with close cooperation with two of his ex-wives and a number of his friends, we are taken through his five marriages, his periods living in squalor, and his souring literary success. We are also given unparalleled insight into his transcendental experiences....
PKD claimed to have visions of the future. In his published journal The Exegesis, he explores precognition, time theories, and even alien abduction. Anthony Peake's own interest in metaphysics and altered states of consciousness makes him the ideal author to explore this aspect of PKD's life. Considering all possible reasonings behind these experiences, from esoteric to neurological, Peake offers a scrupulous biography of this enigmatic author.

In The Labyrinth of Time, Anthony Peake explores the relationship between consciousness and reality, and in the process puts forward an amazing hypothesis that can explain many enigmatic phenomena, including déjà vu, precognition, near-death experience, and altered states. It features a cutting-edge account of modern time theory covering time slips, precognitive dreams, and the elasticity of time during moments of extreme stress, near-death experience, and certain stages of hypnotic trance.

In this mind-expanding book, Anthony Peake reveals an extraordinary model of life after death—one that brings together ideas from ancient philosophy, neuroscience, quantum physics, and consciousness studies and manages to explain a number of seemingly mysterious experiences such as precognition, déjà vu, synchronicity, near-death experiences, and out-of-body experiences. It is called Cheating the Ferryman. This book is a much-awaited follow-up to Peake's internationally best-selling Is There Life After Death?, which introduced his revolutionary model.

Do you occasionally have that strange feeling known as déjà vu? Do you sometimes feel that you know what is going to happen next? Do you ever have a strong feeling that actions you are about to take are the right (or wrong) thing to do? This audiobook proposes a simply amazing theory - a theory that states that personal death is a scientific impossibility. Using the latest findings of neurology, quantum physics, and consciousness studies, Anthony Peake suggests that we never die.

David Icke has become world-famous for his work exposing today’s fast-unfolding global dystopia more than three decades before it became reality. They laughed then. But he didn’t stop there. He went further. Icke knew that the world of the "seen" was only a reflection of something far deeper that ultimately originates with a non-human force in another reality.

In Dimensions, Dr. Jacques Vallee reexamines the historical record that led to the modern UFO phenomenon and to the belief in alien contact. He then tackles the enigma of abduction reports, which come from various times and various countries, as well as the psychic and spiritual components of the contact experience. In the last portion of the book, he notes the factors that inhibit research into the phenomenon - the triple coverup and political motivations - and concludes that the extraterrestrial theory is simply not strange enough to explain the facts.

Story
In Radio Free Albemuth, his last novel, Philip K. Dick morphed and recombined themes that had informed his fiction from A Scanner Darkly to VALIS and produced a wild, impassioned work that sounds like a visionary alternate history of the United States. Agonizingly suspenseful, darkly hilarious, and filled with enough conspiracy theories to thrill the most hardened paranoid, Radio Free Albemuth is proof of Dick's stature as our century's greatest science fiction writer.

Carl Gustav Jung was the 20th century's greatest articulator of the primacy of mind in nature, a view whose origins vanish behind the mists of time. The present book scrutinizes Jung's work to distil and reveal that extraordinary, hidden metaphysical treasure: For Jung, mind and world are one and the same entity; reality is fundamentally experiential, not material; the psyche builds and maintains its body, not the other way around; and the ultimate meaning of our sacrificial lives is to serve God by providing a reflecting mirror to God's own instinctive mentation.

David Icke has been writing books for decades warning that current events were coming. He has faced ridicule and abuse for saying that the end of human freedom was being planned, how, and by whom. The Trap is the "Rosetta Stone" of illusory reality and opens the door to freedom in its greatest sense. Listen to this book and the "world" will never look the same again. The veil of illusion shall be swept aside and the amazing truth this has kept from us shall set you free.

"Normal Spinrad"
At 40:05 the narrator says "Normal Spinrad," meaning Norman. "Normal" kind of sounds like the name of a PKD character, but otherwise, it's *not* the name of PKD's great fellow writer, and I personally don't know anybody who IS normal, by behavior or name! Needs to be fixed. The book will entertain PKD fans, but it's actually rather tame from Peake. You'll probably dig it.

the Life and Mind of PKD
Fascinating read abput PKD books and his personal life. Last few chapters do a great job of exploring what made his work and his literary imagination unique as is related to his health conditions etc.

Hooray! Finally!
Hooray! finally, a PKD biography on Audible. It is good enough that I also bought a copy for my Kindle. I recommend the book.

The Biography Section Was Alright
The biography part was alright, but I just found the rest to be a waste of time.

Scatterbrained Biography in Need of Editing
The bulk of this book focuses on PKD's love life and gossip surrounding by his love life. Get ready to hear in depth descriptions of all his wives and every girl he talked to. If you're here because you have a fascination in the more paranormal and unexplained aspects of the writer's life, you're going to be disappointed. By the time we reach any discussion on his strange experiences, we're so tired from listening of his social life, the paranormal aspects hold little interest. The book ends with a half baked attempt to find some kind of explanation for PKD's experiences. This simply comes out as a list of every possible explanation. It is tedious and tiring to listen to. Perhaps this worked better in print? The narration is good, but there is only so much a narrator can do when dealing with a book that easily could have been trimmed by 60%.
