Unreal Again
The transmigration of Philip K Dick and Terrence McKennaBy Sid J.A. Hubbard
Length1h 44m
About this audiobook
A solar micronova erases the world. 5,000 bunker-bound survivors discover a crystalline lattice cradling 9 billion frozen minds. The Upload Wars slash that number to 7 billion—until metadata is obliterated, ending the carnage.
To stave off madness, they birth PipKD: Philip K. Dick’s paranoia fused with Terence McKenna’s psychedelic fire. Guided by the cosmic VALIS and a garden of sacred mushrooms, PipKD ignites a 900-year gambit: terraform Earth, print bodies, seed myths, and reboot civilization in 1973.
