It began with a blinding light, a divine
revelation from a mysterious intelligence that called itself VALIS. And
with that, the fabric of reality was ripped open and laid bare so that
anything seemed possible, but nothing seemed quite right.
Part
science fiction, part theological detective story in which God plays
both the missing person and the perpetrator of the ultimate crime, VALIS
is both disorienting and eerily funny, and a joy to read.
