Pickpick

This is the first Morrow book that Squidapus read and it's probably his best. If you've read a lot of Morrow it's the same theme; a story where religion is real in a literal sense and what questions that creates. This book is about God dying and falling into the ocean; angels requisition a giant cargo better to tow his miles long body to the Arctic to bury it before it decomposes. A yup. Squidapus loves his realistically it treats this concept.
