Review:

PLANET EARTH IN THE YEAR 2035

faces problems ranging from global warming and rising sea levels to overpopulation, hunger, corporate greed, and religious and political strife. One night a glowing blue-white cloud appears in the sky. In the same direction, a mysterious source of deadly gamma rays is detected. Are these signs of the Judgment Day, an alien invasion or something even more catastrophic? Join mild-mannered astronomer Dr. R. Cooper Smythe as he journeys to the outer reaches of the solar system in search of an answer.

 The Cloud of Doom is a fast-moving sci-fi adventure that has serious points to make, as well.”

John Keenan, Book Review Editor,

The Omaha World-Herald

“[The Cloud of Doom is] a highly compelling story . . . The dialogue is superb, and the narrative is a lot of fun as well as being intellectually intriguing.”

– Stanley P. Baldwin, freelance editor and co-author of

J. R. R. Tolkien: His Life and Works

“If you like unconventional heroes and villains, an original plot and colorful descriptions, then The Cloud of Doom is the book for you.”

Kay Oswalt, writer and critic

The Cloud of Doom is a page-turner. The vile Rev. Bobby Summers/Winters is a truly evil character, and Randall Cooper Smythe is a subtle, thinking-man's hero. I hope there will be a sequel. I want to know more!”

Richard W. Hungerford, Jr., genealogist and financial services representative

In The Cloud of Doom, a threat from outside our solar system causes a world-wide panic. People react to 'The Cloud,' often in destructive ways, based on their personal, ethnic, religious or philosophical biases. In addition, we become aware of the prevalence and magnitude of the worsening environmental crises. Will civilization survive? What will happen to the main characters, Coop, Moira and Gupta? I'm looking forward to a sequel.”

– Dr. Janet Waage Lingren, psychotherapist
