The Eye of the Sibyl and Other Classic Stories by Philip K. Dick
Buy it on Amazon

One thing I know is how widely subjective the opinions are when it comes to Philip K. Dick’s stories. It’s not a stretch though to say that this fifth and final story collection contains some of Dick’s best stories but also quite a few of his worst.

“The Electric Ant” is one of my all-time favorites. Other gems here include “Precious Artifact,” “Holy Quarrel,” “A Game of Unchance,” “A Little Something for Us Tempunauts” and “I Hope I Shall Arrive Soon.”

As of this writing none of the stories in The Eye of the Sibyl have been adapted as movies or for television.
