God is not dead, he has merely been exiled to an extraterrestrial planet. And it is on this planet that God meets Herb Asher and convinces him to help retake Earth from the demonic Belial. Featuring virtual reality, parallel worlds, and interstellar travel, The Divine Invasion blends philosophy and adventure in a way few authors can pull off. As the middle novel of Dicks VALIS trilogy, "The Divine Invasion" plays a pivotal role in answering the questions raised by the first novel while keeping readers in the dark about just how true anything really is, and just how much any one can really knoweven God himself.
