Book Description
Quantum Orchestra is the gripping story shared by Tony-an ordinary man burdened with an extraordinary task. Doc can't find the right hole in his belt to poke his buckle through, yet his work in quantum physics discovers a connection between the physical and spiritual worlds. Los Alamos Labs knows that gifted individuals sometimes suffer with psychological issues and Doc is no exception. He condemns the Lab: "We are removing the thread from the substrate of matter and undoing the divine fabric of existence," and they are aware of his betrayal. He has a plan and recruits Tony to help stop our plunge into darkness. His abilities impress Tony, but it's hard to separate genius from lunatic. Life intrudes, opens new "doors" and reveals a path for Tony. Quantum Orchestra is a mesmerizing tightrope walk through the dichotomy of reality, swinging side to side from physical to spiritual, humorous to haunting, sophisticated to simple, apocalyptic to hopeful, ... and ends once you say, "Aha." IMPORTANT NOTES FROM A READER The Science: There is plenty of it but THIS IS NOT A SCIENCE BOOK. The science (physics and metaphysics) does not "need" to be corroborated because this is speculative fiction (spirituality, science fiction, adventure, paranormal, political, humor, etc.). BUT, I believe the science is legitimate with a touch of conspiracy theory. The science was cleverly injected. I also don't believe you need to understand it for this book to grab you. The Paranormal: Tony tries to remember his past to write this book and he leaves a type of door open to the "other side" to let his memories return from the ether and ghost like entities-referred to as the homeless-slip in and haunt Tony. Spirits don't follow man's rules of nature (past, present, future). And they don't in this book and that is why their presence throughout is a mystery until the end. Some Advice: Pay attention to the sketches, the final words between Kay and Tony, anything in bold, and you'll find the reward. Read the Look Inside tab to get a feel for the book. Also, the paperback has a very sharp glossy cover and looks great on my bookshelf. I also liked the spacing and the font used in the paperback (I read the Kindle, paperback and all reviews). My Honest Opinion: There are just so many books with nice covers and descriptions that it's hard to find the good ones. This is a GREAT book and I believe it deserves recognition. It has depth with "at least" a dual plot (the main plus paranormal). The plots are craftily tied together at the end. There are no loose ends. It pulls you in and causes reflection. It's AMUSING, (wild adventures-including psychedelic drugs, drinking, a gold hunting fiasco, an Indian burial ground, and more); MOVING, (funny, spooky, sad); MEANINGFUL, (captivating, wise, nostalgic, inspiring). It favors open-minded "thinkers" that know that man hasn't solved all of life's mysteries. It does not favor those with a narrow world view, in fact, it may offend them.

Book Description
Rain is elemental, mysterious, precious, destructive. It is the subject of countless poems and paintings; the top of the weather report; the source of the world's water. Yet this is the first book to tell the story of rain. Cynthia Barnett's Rain begins four billion years ago with the torrents that filled the oceans, and builds to the storms of climate change. It weaves together science—the true shape of a raindrop, the mysteries of frog and fish rains—with the human story of our ambition to control rain, from ancient rain dances to the 2,203 miles of levees that attempt to straitjacket the Mississippi River. It offers a glimpse of our "founding forecaster," Thomas Jefferson, who measured every drizzle long before modern meteorology. Two centuries later, rainy skies would help inspire Morrissey’s mopes and Kurt Cobain’s grunge. Rain is also a travelogue, taking readers to Scotland to tell the surprising story of the mackintosh raincoat, and to India, where villagers extract the scent of rain from the monsoon-drenched earth and turn it into perfume. Now, after thousands of years spent praying for rain or worshiping it; burning witches at the stake to stop rain or sacrificing small children to bring it; mocking rain with irrigated agriculture and cities built in floodplains; even trying to blast rain out of the sky with mortars meant for war, humanity has finally managed to change the rain. Only not in ways we intended. As climate change upends rainfall patterns and unleashes increasingly severe storms and drought, Barnett shows rain to be a unifying force in a fractured world. Too much and not nearly enough, rain is a conversation we share, and this is a book for everyone who has ever experienced it.
