- fouc 3y agoI looked it up. Ubik was written earlier in 1969, than Neuromancer, which was written in 1984
- skybrian 3y agoHaven't read Ubik. I'm under the impression it essentially happens by magic (fantasy)? Or is some fictional technology involved?
- layman51 3y agoIt is a kind of cryogenic technology where the person is “half-alive”. But still I guess the book itself does have magical elements in it such as psychic powers.
