WordCrafts Press and Amazon.com bestselling author Marie Sontag are pleased to announce the release of Enlil’s Adventures: Clay Tablets & Mari Spies, the third volume in her ambitious Ancient Elements Series of middle grade historical fiction novels.

Enlil wants to travel like his friends Sam and Amata, but he’s stuck in Babylon working in his family’s bakery. He wants to someday train as a caravan driver, but, since his older brother, Lurs, is a captain in Hammurabi’s army, it’s Enlil’s responsibility to one day take over the family business. Between his bakery deliveries, Enlil secretly watches Lurs train recruits. When he and a friend spot someone bury a clay tablet, they dig it up and discover a coded message from a Mari spy. Decoding the tablet, they leave their own deceptive message, hoping to throw off the spies.
