Enter the Goodreads giveaway for Statues in the Cloud by Daniel Clausen, a haunting and imaginative journey that begins with a letter from a dying fan. In Japan, a writer receives a message from Aya, a young girl suffering from a strange illness. Her request is simple but urgent: come to Nagasaki and help her find seven pieces of a statue. If he succeeds, she claims, she will be cured.
But the quest quickly becomes something far more profound. Each statue piece is tied to a story, seven lives spanning time and space: a future Tokyo governor, a WWII American soldier, a Miami folk hero, a dancer in a futuristic Hiroshima, an AI from the distant future, the writer himself, and Aya. As their stories unfold, the writer and Aya begin to see the threads that bind them, and the terrifying truth behind Aya’s condition.
Her disease is no ordinary affliction. It manifests as a vengeful god, a rogue computer virus, and a deadly contagion. To save Aya, they must uncover the deeper mystery behind these forms. Because if they fail, it won’t just be Aya’s life at risk; it could mean the end of humanity itself.
