The book of rain

Wharton, Thomas 1963- (author.).

Summary: "The northern mining town of River Meadows is one of three hotspots in the world producing ghost ore, a new source of energy worth twenty-eight times its weight in gold. It's also linked with slippages of time and space that gradually render the area uninhabitable. Three intertwined stories flow from the disaster of River Meadows. The accounts they hand down is an Epic of Gilgamesh for our times, illuminating the wisdom of nature and our flawed stewardship of the planet. Author of "The Shadow of Malabron."--
