A New York Times Notable Book: The People vs. God in "a funny, ferocious fantasy" from the two-time Nebula Award-winning author (The Philadelphia Inquirer).
 
Hallelujah! God is not dead. He’s just been a deep-freeze coma in the Arctic. Strapped for cash, the Vatican has sold the body (a bargain at $1.3 billion!) to Baptists in Florida. Enterprising souls that they are, they’ve turned the Corpus Dei into a popular, two-mile long theme-park attraction at Orlando’s Celestial City USA—hooked up to the largest life-support system on earth. Then things get weird.
 
Martin Candle, a justice of the peace who’s suffered a series of devastating setbacks, decides to put Him on trial in The Hague for crimes against humanity. Now, to accumulate evidence for the prosecution, Candle enters God’s brain on a steamer to find out what in the world the Almighty could possibly have been thinking all these years.
 
What ensues in this sequel to James Morrow’s World Fantasy Award-winning Towing Jehovah is a "square off for the greatest moral debate of all time . . . [and it’s] not to be missed" (Booklist).
 
"Surreal . . . dark and powerful." —Publishers Weekly
 
"A wildly imaginative novel . . . as barbed with high and low comedy as an Aristophanes play—and just as fundamentally serious." —The Bloomsbury Review
 
"Hilarious . . . [Morrow] demonstrates a sharp mind, [and] a sharper tongue . . . Salman Rushdie, eat your heart out." —The San Diego Union-Tribune
