About this listen
Sometimes even gods need help. In Galactic Pot-Healer that god is an alien creature known as the Glimmung, which looks alternately like a flaming wheel, a teenage girl, and a swirling mass of ocean life. In order to raise a sunken city, he summons beings from across the galaxy to Plowman’s Planet. Joe Fernwright is one of those summoned, needed for his skills at pot-healing - repairing broken ceramics. But from the moment Joe arrives on Plowman’s Planet, things start to go awry. Is the Glimmung good or evil? Are Joe and his friends helping to save Plowman’s Planet or destroy it? Told as only Philip K. Dick can, Galactic Pot-Healer is a wildly funny tale of aliens, gods, and ceramics.

The narrator was brilliant
Thoroughly enjoyed this story, which is an old favourite of mine. Of particular note is the outstanding narration. I can't praise this enough.

A bad trip!
Distressing and darkly humorous this bad trip of a story with a very bleak view of the future of American society has some scarily accurate foretelling! Do not listen if you are feeling depressed. The computer language translation game is very prescient and foretell Alexa or Google computer mash ups!

Bit off an odd one!
Seems to lack a depth to the characters and a rather odd amd unreal story but it kept me listening and I'm not returning it so not all that bad

Fairly good book, but was expecting something bigger
The story had so much potential but it fades towards the end. It’s quite a strange story and must have some deeper meanings in some areas. Overall it was fairly good.
