You know, UBIK and TMitHC actually sort of work as categories for
PKD's novel-length works - what I've read of them, at least. As you
gather, there are definately more UBIKs than TMitHC, but there are
books in each category that are stronger than UBIK and TMitHC, IMO at
least.
Certainly not an author for everyone, though.
