K.W. Jeter picks up the tale of Rick Deckard, the `blade runner' created by Phillip K. Dick and popularized by Ridley Scott's cult classic film.  Consistent with the sordid vision of 21st century Los Angeles crafted by Dick and Scott, Jeter creates a stylish piece of thrilling, futuristic suspense that finds Deckard not only in the role of hunter, ...

  Worthy Sequel

This story is a sequel to the BR movie. Though at time the author can get a bit wordy and drag things out, it's not enough to really take a star away from the book. The story comes together nicely in a world where everyone is out for themselves and no can be trusted. The plot twist at the end left me saying wow and the story can easily hold your attention.
 
  Wonderful and tragic sequel

Blade Runner 2, while not as philosphical as DADES, is a suspenseful tale full of action. This is also of course, a large amount of personal pain to be inflicted on Deckard, and he has to make some tough decisions. A great book, especially if you liked the movie.
 
  Blade Runner 2: The Edge Of Human.

This book is the sequel to the movie not a sequel to Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep?, for being what it is it's a very good continuation, there are a couple of things that bothered me but were background elements, not anything to do with the story itself, I would really like to know what other people think about this book, not many people have reviewed it even though it's selling. I don't suggest you to read the third book, unless you are a hardcore fan.
 
  A fun ride

The reviewer who described this book as "geekbook mindcandy" made me laugh. I totally agree. As a shameless fangirl, I enjoyed the Phil Dick novel, the film in all its versions, and this tie-in book. It pulled me into the suspense of the plot. I enjoyed the descriptive passages--Jeter clearly loves this version of the future. I'm disappointed to see that this book and the rest of the series are out of print, but copies are readily available for a reasonable price.
 
  The book kicked serious butt.

The book starts off slow, they all do, but starts to get betterand better as you go along and builds for an explosive, and I do meanexplosive, ending.
