For sure, his books overall are pretty meandering, they're like a dream that takes you to different places so that you often forget where you just were.
I just got finished with a short story anthology of his, and finally finished a scanner darkly (unlimited genocide on the movie also) month ago, which was incredible.
Three stigmata of Palmer eldritch, ubik, and androids dream will always be some of my fav books of all time tho.
He's got some real "horny pulp author" issues in some of those (though I otherwise quite like Ubik, for example), which might also be part of why Man in the High Castle is taken more seriously. Then again, there's lots of weird horny issues in other authors that get basically ignored, so I guess that's an unlikely explanation.
Me too, paycheck was so weird but entertaining.
Minority report especially had a wild ending that was completely unexpected after watching the movie (both the story and the movie are great, just very different, ie loosely inspired by).
