The World Jones Made

Dick, Philip K.

Overview

<p>Precognition; a world ruled by Relativism; giant alien jellyfish. <i>The World Jones Made</i> is a classic Philip K. Dick mash-up, taking deep philosophical musings and infusing them with wild action.</p> <p> Floyd Jones has always been able to see exactly one year into his future, a gift and curse that began one year before he was even born. As a fortune-teller at a post-apocalyptic carnival, Jones is a powerful force, and may just be able to force society away from its paralyzing Relativism. If, that is, he can avoid the radioactively unstable government hitman on his tail.</p> <p>Jones began his career telling fortunes at a mutant carnival. But soon this ungainly messiah will convulse a planet with his brand of fanaticism. For although Jones can see the future, his real power lies in his ability to make people dream again--in a world where dreaming has become illegal. </p>
