Synopsis

In the early Pleistocene era, when fire was invented, a young Firekeeper tends the night fire for the kin. He has a personal intimacy with Fire, with whom he speaks, a being both crafty and true. Two challenges present: he must battle the spirits of the night, and he falls into an impossible love with a woman of the day. Read this book to inhabit the little known stories of our deep history, and to see how human weakness and spiritual strength combine to make us human.
