Clouds Above

Our editorial staff found Thompson's latest novel to be yet another example of his master storytelling craft. If you like being in the middle of the action and not taken down rabbit holes or force fed overly descriptive scenes and places, you'll love this book. Thompson has taken facts of an extremely serious environmental problem and woven them into a plausible, almost certain world ahead. In fact, it doesn't read like science fiction. It reads more like reality. Be prepared. Cindy Coopwood, Editor-in-Chief, DELTA Magazine. While this may be science fiction, it could actually happen. That's just one of the things that makes it intriguing. Thompson weaves believable characters, both good and greedy, along with dangers throughout the story. Plenty of intrigue and new-found knowledge about our water future kept me in the story the entire way. This is a new genre for Thompson and once again he knocks it out of the park. Susan Reichert, former Editor-in-Chief, Southern Writers Magazine, current editor of Suite T, and author of Storms in Life and other books. The surprising twists and turns of Thompson's intriguing sci-fi mystery had me cheering for the well-developed main character, Dr. Grayson Fields. Her journey whets my appetite for plausible solutions to our planet's dilemma we face in the not too-distant future.
