The Man in the High Castle

If you've watched the Amazon original series based on this book, and read it thinking you'll be seeing something just like the TV show, you might be disappointed. The premise is the same, and some of the characters are the same, or at least have the same names, but the story is less widely dispersed. The action in the book takes place only in the Pacific States and, to a lesser extent, the Rocky Mountain States, and there are no films...instead there is a book written by the Man in the High Castle. Despite this, if you can read the book and judge it on its own merits, it's a great read and an intriguing story. I found that it being different from the story depicted in the TV show made it more enjoyable...I didn't know what to expect, or what to think about some aspects of the book as I read it.
