From official release/information:
Once upon a time in Science Fiction, Philip K. Dick, that eternal font of skewed sciffy, asked in a story title: "Do Android's Dream of Electric Sheep?" Which later became Ridley Scott's seminal SF flick, Blade Runner. The question surfaces again, at least obliquely, in the title of John Scalzi's first book apart from his Old Man's War series, and evidentially, yes, androids do dream of electric sheep. At least if you include AI's as androids and genetically modified strains of sheep (and people) as electric sheep. If that's too much of a stretch for you, don't worry…the story is quite a lot of fun without any genre in jokes.
