"David Morton is the hero of the most exciting and visible series of international action thrillers since James Bond was granted his licence." (The Sunday Times)
Operative David Morton accompanies the US president on an anti-pollution campaign in an effort to infiltrate and foil an international conspiracy. The world’s getting smaller by the minute. In a remote corner of East Anglia six nuclear trigger mechanisms are stolen from a maximum security bunker. A few hours later the crew of a racing balloon are rescued from the North Sea.
In Moscow, a former Soviet research scientist is seen leaving a mortuary in the dead of night. At the time of his disappearance, Sergei Mikhailovich Bodor was rumored to have been investigating the effect of the ozone layer’s destruction on the development of military hardware until the collapse of communism made his work obsolete.
In Washington, the President of the United States unveils his vision of a worldwide environmental program, Operation Earth Saver, having finally won over the support of most of the major western leaders. To educate the developing nations of its merits, he is preparing to use the futuristic presidential airliner, Air Force One, as the traveling venue for the unique global conference tour.
In the world headquarters of the multi-portfolio industrial conglomerate Meridian International, its own president Ignatius Bailey believes in a very different kind of survival…Poisoned Sky portrays a world almost too close to our own, shrunk by the most sophisticated of intelligence networks and ravaged by the industrial pollution, but a world in which individuals still have the power to change its future.

The witnesses are legion, scattered across the world and dotted through history, people who looked up and saw something impossible lighting up the night sky. What those objects were, where they came from, and who - or what - might be inside them is the subject of fierce debate and equally fierce mockery, so that most who glimpsed them came to wish they hadn't. Most, but not everyone.

A century from now, thanks to a technology allowing instantaneous travel across light-years, humanity has solved its energy shortages, cleaned up the environment, and created far-flung colony worlds. The keys to this empire belong to the powerful North family - composed of successive generations of clones. Yet these clones are not identical. For one thing, genetic errors have crept in with each generation. For another, the original three clone "brothers" have gone their separate ways, and the branches of the family are now friendly rivals more than allies. Or maybe not so friendly....

Everyone is relieved when things return to normal, and local government officials are happy to sweep the publicity nightmare under a rug. But then parts of the Caribbean start turning a familiar red right before hurricane season kicks into high gear, and the implications are clear....

Three-time Hugo Award-winning author Allen Steele now imagines an alternate history rooted in an actual historical possibility: what if the race to space had occurred in the early days of WWII? It's 1941, and Wernher von Braun is ordered by his Fuehrer to abandon the V2 rocket and turn German resources in a daring new direction: construction of a manned orbital spacecraft capable of attacking the U.S. Work on the rocket - called Silbervogel - begins at Peenemunde. Though it is top secret, British intelligence discovers the plan, and brings word to Franklin Roosevelt.

Reseñas editoriales
Published in 1996, Gordon Thomas’ ecological thriller, Poisoned Sky, proves itself stunningly prescient of historical events that would unfold in the very near future. The story of secret operative David Morton, on a quest to infiltrate a global conspiracy with dire designs for Earth’s environment, Poisoned Sky accurately predicts the ubiquity of the Internet, the omniscience of global intelligence networks, the reemergence of deadly chemical weapons, and the global repercussions of a vast and covert campaign against terrorism. Like any good intelligence agent, actor Gary Dikeos (Dead End Falls) is precise and alert. Dikeos’ straightforward, fluid performance at turns betrays curiosity, anxiety, and foreboding, suggesting that this performer - much like his audiences - is glued to the edge of his seat with rapt anticipation.
