Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep - Part 1 Review

I will have to admit the first couple of chapters I struggled a bit to get through. It was almost as if the reader is just thrown into this post-apocalyptic world and are trying to undersand the terms while also getting some of the information. Once I got to the fourth/fifth chapter it started to get really interesting to me. At first we don't really know much about Rick, except for he is trying to deal with his wife's self-caused depression and the fact that he has an electric sheep because his live one died. Then I found out that he is a bounty hunter for androids. The part that was really interesting to me was when Rick had to give the VK test to Rachael. He at first got her on a few questions but then when she passed, he almost walked out thinking he had failed. But something about the way she was talking about the owl made him ask one more question. With that last question, he reinstated the validity of the VK test.

The next thing that was very interesting because it was a twist was when Rick went after Luft and he met the android-infested station. They have gone so far undetected by the actual police station and other people and Rick just stumbled across it.

I'm really excited to finish the book and find out what happens next!
