While Sargasso of Space is a popular and important SF novel - for reasons I’ll get to shortly - The Cosmic Puppets is the primary reason this paperback commands real interest among collectors. The Cosmic Puppets is a tale of alien invasio. lthough, as usual for Dick, it disregards most of the typical conventions of an alien invasion story. Although The Cosmic Puppets is considered an important and approachable novel today, it didn’t make much of a ripple when it first appeared.
