The Clay Queen
by Ono Ekeh
PreviewWhen Queen Nouei’s armies fall in battle, her enemies march north to strip her of her divine status.To fight back, Nouei must secretly restart her divine journey anew and rewrite her 4,000-year history before her enemies arrive in a fortnight.Nouei risks everything and reincarnates as Bridget Blade, a contemporary mathematician and scientist. But, Bridget, being a reincarnated god, has no natural human instinct for self-preservation and has a habit of rushing headlong into danger after danger.All Bridget wants, though, is freedom from her strange impulses. She wants nothing more than to enjoy the love of her family. She has no interest in being a god. But as the bearer of Nouei’s future, the Queen can ill afford to let Bridget live a normal life. The Queen has a trick up her sleeve and it is a costly one. Can Bridget resist Nouei’s call from the future, or will she give in to the summons to become a god?
