The dawn of the twenty-first century saw some of the most violent weather on record. Scientific evidence suggests this trend marks the beginning of a climatological nightmare: a massive and unprecedented storm of unimaginable destructive force.

WHAT WILL TRIGGER IT?

Global warming is about to cause the North Atlantic Current to drop to a more southerly route, causing cold Arctic air to barrel into overheated temperate zones.

WHAT WILL IT BE LIKE?

Sudden, dramatic changes in climate all over the world. Blizzard conditions. Sustained winds in excess of 100 miles per hour. The most severe winter storms in history. Shocking death rates.

WHAT CAN WE DO TO STAVE IT OFF?

Plenty. Talk-show host Art Bell and #1 bestselling author Whitley Strieber, two of America's leading investigators of unexplained phenomena, offer a wealth of viable solutions in this impressively researched examination of modern environmental science and weather-related disasters. Read The Coming Global Superstorm -- and take action today to avoid a deadly tomorrow.It's time to stop talking about the weather and do something about it. Paranormal superstars Art Bell and Whitley Strieber bring environmentalism to the masses tabloid-style in The Coming Global Superstorm, a quick look at global warming and its potentially catastrophic effects. Like Old Testament prophets, Bell and Strieber embrace lovingly detailed depictions of global cataclysm; unlike them, our modern-day doomsayers have more to go on than that old-time religion. Their writing is clear and straightforward, interspersing hard data with dramatization and speculation to create an engaging, enjoyable, but thoroughly spooky warning of the next Ice Age.

Scoffers would do well to remember the 1900 hurricane that devastated Galveston, Texas, despite the clear warnings--we may have advanced our meteorological knowledge over the 20th century, but is our judgment any better? Bell and Strieber are ultimately optimistic that quick behavior change can avert the big storm for a while, even if archaeological evidence suggests its inevitability. Their solutions range from the small scale (buy fuel-efficient cars) to the grandiose (global cooperation in weather monitoring). Whether their suggestions will help is a moot question (how could we ever know?); surely, though, they won't hurt. --Rob Lightner
