Overview
An artist searches for God so he can paint his portrait in Philip K. Dick’s collaboration with Roger Zelazny.
After World War III, the Servants of Wrath cult deified the mysterious Carlton Lufteufel, creator of the doomsday weapon that wiped out much of humanity. But to worship the man, they need an image of him as a god, and no one has ever seen him. So the high priests send a limbless master painter named Tibor McMasters into the wilderness on a mission to find Lufteufel and capture his likeness. Unfortunately for Tibor, the nation’s remaining Christians do not want him to succeed and are willing to kill to ensure that the so-called Deus Irae remains hidden. This hallucinatory tale through a nuclear wasteland asks what price the artist must pay for art and tries to figure out just what makes a god.While major retailers like Amazon may carry Deus Irae, we specialize in bulk book sales and offer personalized service from our friendly, book-smart team based in Portland, Oregon.
