About this audiobook
Mr. Spaceship is set in the distant future, where humanity is at war with "Yuks", an alien life form which does not use mechanical spaceships nor constructions. Instead, it relies on life forms. The war has been going on for a long time, and humanity has not been able to come up with a solution against the life-form based ships and mines that the Yuks use. One day, a team of researchers led by our hero Philip Kramer decide to build a spaceship which is powered by a human brain(!) They find the ideal candidate, Kramer's old professor, a dying man who volunteers to donate his brain to the project...This is just the starting point of an absolutely incredible adventure!

DICK (1928–1982) published 36 science fiction novels and 121 short stories in which he explored the essence of what makes man human and the dangers of centralized power.

The recipient of critical acclaim and numerous awards throughout his career, including the Hugo and John W.

His work has been translated into more than twenty-five languages.
