Combining aliens, time travel, and interplanetary real estate scams, Martian Time-Slipmay just be the quintessential Philip K. Dick novel. On an arid Mars, local bigwigs compete with Earth-bound interlopers to buy up land before the UN develops it and its value skyrockets. Martian Union leader Arnie Kott has an ace up his sleeve, though: an autistic boy named Manfred who seems to have the ability to see the future. But is he seeing the future as it will be or is he seeing it through his own dark and paranoid filter? When Manfred begins sending other people traveling through time, the answer to this question just might mean the difference between success or insanity.
