A New York Times Notable Book: The People vs. God in âa funny, ferocious fantasyâ from the two-time Nebula Awardâwinning author (The Philadelphia Inquirer).  Hallelujah! God is not dead. Heâs 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, theyâve turned the Corpus Dei into a popular, two-mile long theme-park attraction at Orlandoâs Celestial City USAâhooked up to the largest life-support system on earth. Then things get weird.  Martin Candle, a justice of the peace whoâs 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 Godâs 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 Morrowâs World Fantasy Awardâwinning Towing Jehovah is a âsquare off for the greatest moral debate of all time . . . [and itâs] not to be missedâ (Booklist).  âSurreal . . . dark and powerful.â âPublishers Weekly  âA wildly imaginative novel . . . as barbed with high and low comedy as an Aristophanes playâand just as fundamentally serious.â âThe Bloomsbury Review  âHilarious . . . [Morrow] demonstrates a sharp mind, [and] a sharper tongue . . . Salman Rushdie, eat your heart out.â âThe San Diego Union-Tribune
