The Man in the High Castle by Philip K. DickMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
As a history buff, I found the premise of an alternate history of World War 2 with a science fiction twist fascinating. I've only seen trailers or clips of the mini-series as I wanted to hold off until I read the book.
The story takes a while before the different parts start to make some cohesive sense. The characters each have their own story arc, and it does spark some interest as to how they connect in the story. Despite the seeming disconnectedness of the characters, I found the picture of the world that the author paints of this alternate history fascinating and kept my attention. It kept me wanting more and returning to the book with more enthusiasm as it went along. Even after finishing, I still felt I wanted to learn more about this world.
I did enjoy this one more than expected. I do see myself returning to this and diving deeper into this story.
