( World War Terminus had left the Earth devastated. Through its ruins, bounty hunter Rick Deckard stalked, in search of the renegade replicants who were his prey. When he wasn't 'retiring' them with his laser weapon, he dreamed of owning a live animal -- the ultimate status symbol in a world all but bereft of animal life. Then Rick got his chance: the assignment to kill six Nexus-6 targets, for a huge reward. But in Deckard's world things were never that simple, and his assignment quickly turned into a nightmare kaleidoscope of subterfuge and deceit -- and the threat of death for the hunter rather than the hunted...

I just finished reading this book this morning on the train to work and I think I liked it but not sure. It took me quite a while to get into it, I'm not sure if that was because I was reading it over the busy holiday period or just because it wasn't 100% my type of book.
I've only recently got back into reading but probably could have finished the book in a day if I was thoroughly enjoying it.
Don't get me wrong its a very well written book, and with a good story line but I don't think it is fully my kind of book, I like sci-fi but I feel there was something missing in this book. Maybe a lack of description on the 'retirement' of androids or lack of action.
Recommend to sci-fi fans, but don't take the book lightly there are some quite deep-thinking moments within the story.

The best book I have ever read. Mostly because I am a fan of Blade Runner. This book helped me understand the movie alot more. If you love Blade Runner read this. If you haven't seen Blade Runner, read it anyway.
