  The Philip K. Dick Short Story Collection gathers some of the author’s most unsettling and visionary works—stories that helped define modern science fiction and inspired generations of writers, filmmakers, and thinkers. In this gripping volume, Philip K. Dick explores paranoia, identity, war, and perception through razor-sharp ideas and unforgettable twists. 
  From the eerie unease of “Piper in the Woods,” where hidden forces manipulate human behavior, to the relentless psychological terror of “Second Variety,” this collection confronts the terrifying consequences of autonomous weapons and dehumanized warfare. “The Crystal Crypt” delivers a haunting tale of loss and revenge set against an interplanetary backdrop, while “The Defenders” questions the nature of truth, propaganda, and obedience in a world shaped by unseen powers. Closing the collection, “The Eyes Have It” showcases Dick’s darkly humorous brilliance, turning language, perception, and alien fear into a sharp commentary on human misunderstanding. 
  Written during Philip K. Dick’s early and most imaginative period, these stories reveal the foundations of his enduring themes: distorted realities, moral ambiguity, and the fragile boundary between what we see and what truly is. Essential reading for fans of classic science fiction, dystopian futures, and mind-bending ideas, The Philip K. Dick Short Story Collection is a powerful introduction—and a rewarding return—to one of the genre’s greatest voices.

  Now a Major Motion Picture starring Taron Egerton, Ana Sophia Heger, Rob Yang and John Carroll Lynch 
  A propulsive, gritty novel about a girl marked for death who must fight and steal to stay alive, learning from the most frightening man she knows—her father 
  Eleven-year-old Polly McClusky is shy, too old for the teddy bear she carries with her everywhere, when she is unexpectedly reunited with her father, Nate, fresh out of jail and driving a stolen car. He takes her from the front of her school into a world of robbery, violence, and the constant threat of death. And he does it to save her life. 
  Nate made dangerous enemies in prison—a gang called Aryan Steel has put out a bounty on his head, counting on its members on the outside to finish him off. They’ve already murdered his ex-wife, Polly’s mother. And Polly is their next target. 
  Nate and Polly’s lives soon become a series of narrow misses, of evading the bad guys and the police, of sleepless nights in motels. Out on the lam, Polly is forced to grow up early: with barely any time to mourn her mother, she must learn how to take a punch and pull off a drug-house heist. She finds herself transforming from a shy little girl into a true fighter. Nate, in turn, learns what it’s like to love fiercely and unconditionally—a love he’s never quite felt before. But can their powerful bond transcend the dangerous existence he’s carved out for them? Will they ever be able to live an honest life, free of fear? 
  She Rides Shotgun is a gripping and emotionally wrenching novel that upends even our most long-held expectations about heroes, villains, and victims. Nate takes Polly to save her life, but in the end it may very well be Polly who saves him.
