About this ebook
Climate change is man-made, but caused by just a powerful few known as Druids.
When successful meteorologist Mason Griers is recruited to consult for a mysterious environmental firm, it’s the perfect chance to put his lifetime obsession with violent weather to practical use. Solstice Inc. promises a new technology that can accurately predict, and possibly control, catastrophic weather events around the world. Too late however, Mason learns that Solstice is made up of high ranking and powerful Druids, and he's become an unwitting tool in the firm's dark plot that could remake the world on a scale not seen since the last great extinction.
"Sakmyster spins a thrilling tale of action, intrigue, and the occult. You'll keep turning pages late into the night!" -David Wood, author of Atlantis

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Mason Grier has just won an award as best meteorologist and then he's offered a new job with no explanation as to what the job is about. This leads him on a trek where he and his family are placed in danger - and he soon discovers the planet. He later finds he has powers he never knew he had. Powers he must learn to use to save all he loves. But .....
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5poor. Readable, but only just. Lacking in any sense of balance or proportionality. Mason is a weatherman, no better than the rest really, but with a neat instinct. However his past family life was severally traumatised by some bad weather and so he's done all he can to learn. Which really shows the author's fundamental lack of understanding about how weather presentation is done and calculated. HOwever it turns out that his instinct is actually genetic, passed on from his unknown blood father who was once chief druid of the world. The druids have been manipulating the weather for centuries to help nuture humankind's development and protect them from the vicissitudes of fate. Now however a new cabal has taken over, that would prefer to wipe the slate clean and start again with a fresh crop of humanity who are more committed to maintaining a delicate touch upon the world - themselves only. Their preferred tool is global warming, which they've been subtly encouraging, but have now decided to step into more violent means. It is unclear whether the author genuinely doesn't think global warming will effect the earth or is trying to use this exaggerated means to demonstrate how sever the threat will be.Such un-clarity of expression and thought is far from the worst thing. The characters a thin, the motivations little more than meglomanical, there's no reason ro explanation for what powers characters may have or wield or what limits there may be, nor how or why certain factions learn or act upon information. Apparently the series continues with a evil laugh.... I won't be reading any more.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Captivating!This reader was pulled in from the beginning. I have read many of Sakmyster's works and each time I am never disappointed. This was a magnificent thriller that will make you shiver, especially every time you hear thunder and see the flashing of lightning. The story is so well written, you can almost feel the ground move and see the lightning flash! I was on the edge of my seat and couldn’t turn the pages fast enough. The weather is being manipulated in order to kill and control the world by Solstice, and they've enlisted Mason. I highly recommend this book, as well as any books written by Sakmyster.
