Portent
Author: James Herbert
 
Around the world, from San Francisco to the Indian City of Varanasi, from the Great Barrier Reef to the Taklimakan Desert, forces of unimaginable violence are being unleashed - earthquakes, sandstorms, volcanic eruptions, deadly hailstorms, forest fires. Each disaster is preceded by the mysterious appearance of strange, dazzling lights.
Portents.
All are signs of a coming titanic struggle between the forces of darkness and light.
A struggle involving a hermit in the remote Scottish highlands with an extraordinary secret . . . Two very special children who unknowingly hold the future of the planet in their hands . . . And the grotesque matriarch of a bizarre New Orleans cult who is determined to destroy them . . .
British climatologist James Rivers discovers the horrifying truth behind what appears to be a series of natural disasters.
Something incredible is about to happen . . .
