All I heard was distant thunder and the sound of rain.
But soon there was another sound: that of distant thunder.
A sound like that of distant thunder shook the house.
Outside in the street, I heard people shouting questions and something like distant thunder.
Now and then a film bent, making a sound like distant thunder.
And now a distant thunder was rolling down from the edge of space.
But the name echoed in her mind like distant thunder.
They were the distant thunder of the past, washing over him.
Sometimes, from the south, they would hear a faint sound, like distant thunder.
The ground under his hand was trembling with some distant thunder.
