People greet each other with “goodbye,”  blow smoke into cigarettes, and rise from the dead. When one of those  rising dead is the famous and powerful prophet Anarch Peak, a number of  groups start a mad scramble to find him first—but their motives are not  exactly benevolent because Anarch Peak may just be worth more dead than  alive, and these groups will do whatever they must to send him back to  the grave.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhat would you do if your long-dead relatives started  coming back? Who would take care of them? And what if they preferred  being dead? In \u003ci\u003eCounter-Clock World\u003c\/i\u003e, one of Dick’s most  theological and philosophical novels, these troubling questions are  addressed; though, as always, you may have to figure out the answers  yourself.","brand":"HarperCollins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47120422502640,"sku":"9780547724898","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780547724898_p0.jpg?v=1763716757","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780547724898","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
