Just when TV shows about storm chasing can’t get any more extreme, along comes a production company with the ultimate exploit: the Bubble, a manned tornado probe. As the reluctant consultant, expert storm chaser Jack Andreas must get the show’s nervous star, failed tour operator Brad Treat, into a twister. But Jack is losing his customary cool as a comedy of errors unfolds. Distracting him is co-star Saffire, a Hollywood actress who is more than she seems, and producer Wynda, who will do anything to make her documentary succeed. The daring star of another show pursues them, desperate for a shot with his own flying machine. As the disasters mount, will Jack be able to launch their device into a tornado? In this second Storm Seekers novel — the sequel to FUNNEL VISION — TORNADO PINBALL delivers an unforgettable adventure with action, humor, romance and stunning storms.

[Cynthia · Rating 5 out of 5]

If you love adventure and want to live it through the eyes of someone who loves to live life dangerously, in my point of view, this is a fantastic book. Many people would love to have the courage to chase storm and to be in the center of activity; guess thinking that you will be fine is secondary to the thrill and the excitement. Liked the concept very much and found that I felt like the characters were more real than in many books. I am way too old to have this kind of excitement in my life, but through great books like this, it is possible. A really wonderful story. I recommend this book highly. I received mine as a Giveaway from Goodreads and I hope that other people will order it and see what other have already found out-the book is great!!!

Chris Kridler is a gifted photojournalist, writer, and stormchaser. I enjoyed this book a lot. Can't wait for the next one in the series. The characters are realistic and complicated, the storyline interesting, and the sex scenes sizzle as much as the weather rumbles.
