The discovery of the century... Anthropology professor Terry Castro,
leading a summer-school program in the Peruvian rain forest, stumbles
upon the remnant of a nation of tall, white-skinned warriors from the
time of the Incan empire. But, when a simple accident leaves Castro
poisoned, a series of events are set in motion that threaten his life,
and the extinction of the tribe. With the help of a young medium, Carrie
Waters, Castro tries to find a remedy and discovers the poison also has
the capability of tripling life expectancy. Waters confides in her
uncle, Vikter Glass, a pharmaceutical company executive, in the hope
that the company can manufacture an antidote. Her innocent attempt to
save the man she loves triggers a race to locate the lost tribe and its
fountain-of-youth elixir. Scientific advancement collides with corporate
greed as competing forces converge on the tribe. The ensuing battle
leaves the survivors asking: might extending human life expectancy
destroy society as we know it? "I want a book that will take me
someplace I've never been before. Rob Jung does that with Cloud
Warriors...a fast-paced, exotic suspense novel into the heart of
darkness." Steve Thayer: New York Times bestselling author of THE
WEATHERMAN
