The Cloud Atlas: Set against the magnificent backdrop of Alaska in the warning days of World War II, The Cloud Atlas is an enthralling debut novel, a story of adventure and awakening – and of a young soldier who went to Alaska on an extraordinary top secret mission......and found a world that would haunt him forever.

Drifting through the night, whisper-quiet, they were the most sublime manifestations of a desperate enemy: Japanese balloon bombs. Sergeant Louis Belk, age eighteen, was one of the men sent to Alaska to find and dispose of these improbable weapons – and then keep them secret from an already anxious public. But the mysteries confronting the young sergeant only increase when he meets his superior officer – a brutal veteran OSS spy hunter who knows all too well what the balloons can do – and a beautiful Yup'ik Eskimo woman who claims she can see the future. Chasing that will lead him into the vast tundra to a discovery and a choice that will change the course of his life.
