Heh almost exactly why i rate them that high. Only Jack Vance can be near in my eyes and thats mostly cause i love the way he writes.
If you wanna make it simple RAH makes political SF more interesting than anyone and PKD philosiphical,social problems SF better than anyone.
I havent seen you write about PKD novels. Will be interesting to see which ones you find most interesting.
