In THE CLOUD IDOL SPEAKS, you’ll meet an internet billionaire who has assembled a crew of like-minded individuals for a clandestine mission. Peter Booth amassed his wealth by inventing a highly intelligent and entertaining search engine from his bayou home. Now Peter’s goals are to elevate the quality of life for all humans while preserving the natural world and returning it to a pristine state. Ambitious doesn’t even begin to describe this undertaking. The opposition he and his compatriots will face is colossal. Most notably, human greed. No place on earth boasts more greed per square inch than the Osprey Club in San Francisco and its redwood retreat to the north. The all male club, in existence for over a century, includes only the most powerful and ruthless men of business and politics. So Peter’s diverse team will have their hands full if they are to prevail. These brave and misguided souls are Pixel (an eco-terrorist hacker who is wicked with her bow and prefers to be naked whenever possible), Guru (an unpublished writer hiding from reality on a Maui beach), Hog (a big bearded biker who secretly loves opera), Plethora and Plenty (husband and wife dwarfs, doctor and herbalist), Anguish, Mistrust and Dread (individually intellectuals, collectively Porkshit-a punk rock band).

Will good intentions triumph over obstinacy?

Cryptic enough?

What will nature have to say in response to such a clash of ideologies?

Are you intrigued yet?

Warning: This book contains sex, drugs, & rock-n-roll!

How about now?
