Synopsis

A Maze of Death is a 1970 science fiction novel by Philip K. Dick. Like many of Dick's novels, it portrays what appears to be a drab and harsh other-planet, human colony and explores the difference between reality and perception. It is, however, one of his few to explore the human death instinct and capacity for murder and is one of his darkest novels.
