ThunderCloud... begins with a front-row look into a troubled Native-American teenager's trial and ex-communication from his "Principal People" (the Cherokee). His struggles to survive in a world full of strangers, some good, some bad, in many ways mirror our own. ThunderCloud's external obstacles force him to confront his real and imaginary inner demons that led him to his lonely situation in life. What he discovers inside changes his outlook on his past, present, and future. The oddities of the individuals, cultures, and generations that come across his path challenge his manhood and determine his ability to relate to and live and work within a group. He learns -- and we do with him -- that, ultimately, every bit of his life, including the consequences of his decisions and actions, measures his responsibility level. Whether or not his tribe accepts him upon his return with a motley gaggle of people and numerous stories to tell is his final challenge after rescuing a gang of youthful renegades, one precocious runaway, and the woman who may one day bear his children!

Reader Review:

"'THUNDERCLOUD ...' by Ronald Joseph Kule is a stunning novel! I enjoyed it very much. I loved reading about the shoo-fly pie - the first time I have heard about it." - Jean Hughes, avid book-reader from North Dakota.

Industry Reviews

Writing of the author’s character and the quality of his work, award-winning, 30-year sports journalist & Best-selling author J. David Miller wrote this:

“As good as his work is, behind Ron Kule’s prodigious work-ethic lies a heart that beats for others to whom he can give service, expecting in return only the time-honored values of honesty, tolerance, and demonstrated competence. His keen insights into what motivates and inspires people to want to do better have made a difference in my life. Not one to rest on his laurels, he would rather effect positive changes in those close to him, and the world, no matter the personal consequences. These qualities tell us that here is a man of intense personal integrity ... exemplified by his novels such as ThunderCloud.”
