The Big God Network
by J.C. McGowan
"Baba Ed's wealthy Offworld cult seeks to interact with aliens through 'The Channel, ' hot technology sought by bionic Yakuza, AI hitmen, ruthless multinationals, wired Evangelicals with virtual churches, and the rapture-obsessed president of New America, who seeks to rewrite post-American history and take back Pacifica, heathen neighbor to the west. Franz Sampaio, host of the 'Transmigrations' world-religions Net show, must safeguard the Channel and protect Pacifica, even as uncanny events indicate possible extraterrestrial visitors. Set in near future California, Bali, Tokyo and cyberspace, 'The Big God Network' is a science-fiction adventure-comedy that is both a political satire and a spiritual journey."--Publisher's description
