From a comic "genius," a World Fantasy Award-winning novel about a ship captain employed to tow God to His final rest is "deliciously irreverent" (Booklist).
God is dead, and Anthony Van Horne must tow the corpse to the Arctic (to preserve Him from sharks and decomposition). En route Van Horne must also contend with ecological guilt, a militant girlfriend, sabotage both natural and spiritual, and greedy hucksters of oil, condoms, and doubtful ideas. A World Fantasy Award winner
"This clever novel...stands as a wry, boisterous celebration." --Publishers Weekly
"Bubbly and inviting." --Library Journal
"Witty, entertaining, and provocative." --Kirkus Reviews
