In 1944-45, Louis Belk was a soldier, not a missionary, dispatched to find and dispose of these improbable weapons- Fu-Go weapons, or balloon bombs-and then keep them secret from an already anxious public.īut the mysteries confronting Louis only increase when he meets his superior officer-a brutal veteran OSS spy hunter who knows all too well what the balloons can do-and a woman who claims she can see the future. Set in past and present Alaska, The Cloud Atlas is narrated by a missionary who spent World War II chasing down one of that war’s strangest weapons-firebombs that silently crossed the Pacific, tethered to balloons. ![]() (First things first: are you actually looking, as most are, for David Mitchell’s novel Cloud Atlas, or the related movie ?
