The Crystal Crypt: A Short Science Fiction Novel (2000) - Plot & Excerpts
It gets only 3 stars because it was pretty much predictable all the way.But, we have to remember that this book was first published in the 1960's where twists and turns were defined differently.As Philip K Dick's short stories go, it was a very short one. But, the story was filled with Dick's trademark intelligence.It narrates the tale of how Mars fights back against Earth's oppression.A very decent way to spend 20-odd minutes. This PKD short story got a 3 star for these reasons. Even though it was pretty predictable, i happened to look past that part considering the fact that it was published in the 60's. I'm sure when it was first released the world had not read or seen so many twists except from the twilight zone series. It would have received a 4 star rating if it ended differently. Yes i was predicting how it was going to end, and for the most part i was correct; however, i feel he could have put more into the ending then what he had written already. I would explain more but i do not want to give away anything. enjoy

Classic Philip K. Dick short story. Not everything is as it seems.

Falls headfirst into the trope of every Bond villain.
