The Man in the High Castle by Philip K. Dick

3.0

Interesting concept that the author chose to turn into a mostly boring story of backroom politics. I did enjoy the various areas where something actually happened, but the general flow was from boring to interesting and back to boring, and then repeat. Exploration of cultural changes certainly got me thinking, and exploration of Nazi racism was completely in-your-face. The title about the man in the high castle was actually a rather minor theme, but pretty fascinating that this "man", in a world where Japan & Germany & Italy won WWII, would write convincingly about what the world would have looked like had the Allies won instead.
