Man has always wanted to control the weather.  When Andrea loses her father during a hurricane she dedicates her life trying to find out how to control and stop these ravishers of nature.  When government funding is pulled from her project, Stormfury, she goes it alone and continues.  One day a real big hurricane appears over the Bermuda Triangle and she sends out her team to fight it.  Things go horribly wrong as the hurricane gains power and grows uncontrollable.  Suddenly, the hurricane disappears, taking the man she loves with it.  For 30 years, Andrea continues her fight against one of nature’s most devastating phenomena.   One day the hurricane reappears and her team have barely enough time to get out there with new ideas to stop the hurricane before it heads for the American coast to cause untold damage.   

David Niall Wilson has created an adventure of a story.  Who wouldn’t like to control hurricanes and get them to become tamer if not disappear altogether.  In this story, Mr. Wilson gives a believable scenario on how this could work and has written a cast of characters whose main goal is to fight hurricanes.  Andrea is relentless in her pursuit and goals.  Since she lost her father, she works and works.  This reviewer found this story fascinating and she enjoyed it until the end.  Mr. Wilson writes good characters, an exciting plot and good dialogue.  There is a nice twist at the end as the Bermuda Triangle conjures up a lot of possibilities.  This reviewer knows that readers of pure science fiction will enjoy this story.  For this reviewer’s taste however, it was a great story but not a keeper.
