Blurb:
A
Sumerian water and sky god myth collides with a modern high school.
Ayanna

things she never had before. Somehow, she’s able to accept it when she
discovers he’s a reincarnated Sumerian water god. Will she be able to accept
the full truth, that the story of Enki and Inanna has been reborn in a modern
Ohio high school?

Review by Rochelle:
Okay, I
admit I’m a fan of Ms. Kaye. I haven’t reviewed many of her books,
because for the past couple of years I’ve been her editor. Sadly, our publisher
has closed, so I am no longer in that position. Someone else gets to read and
barely tweak Ms. Kaye’s books.
The
good news is that now I can review them, and they’re all masterpieces. The
characters are deeply drawn, and the pace moves right along. Images aren’t just
vivid, Ms. Kaye’s descriptions are downright poetic. The Sunshine State is
wasted on an author who loves the rain and conveys its moods and music in ways
that even a person who hides from thunder storms can appreciate and enjoy.
Clouded is a young adult/new adult book, in
which the Sumerian water god Enki and sky Goddess Inana are reincarnated and
reunited in a small town Ohio high school. Calder realizes he’s Enki and he
knows he’s found his Inana when he meets Ayanna. She can accept that he’s Enki,
but has more difficulty accepting her own divinity. She only knows she’s in
love with Calder.
Don’t
let the YA/NA genre throw you. By all means, buy Clouded for your teenaged kids or grandkids. But read it yourself,
too. I’m almost sixty-five and I loved it. I highly recommend Clouded for young people of all ages.
