I read just about all of Scalzi, starting with 'old man's war'. Haven't read Android's Dream, title obviously a take on Phillip K Dick's
'Do androids dream of electric sheep"

Right now, Ultima by Stephan Baxter.

Did Dick get any money from the movies of his scripts? I seem to recall he died before he got anything. Like Blade Runner, was he alive for that flick? Found this:

13 movies but Blade Runner is the only one MAYBE he was alive to see, he died the same year it came out, 1982.

An Invisible (En osynlig) - Pontus Ljunghill
