Review of 'The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

Try to imagine how to implement virtual reality during a time when computers do nothing but manipulate text and numbers. Some drugs may be required (by the implementation). Now add Inception-style nested, shared hallucinations. Now imagine the first extrasolar being we encounter is a god who invades Earth via identity sharing.
