A vividly told, historically detailed story of the human origins of our land, this first book of a planned multi-book series follows Torka, a particularly brave and intelligent hunter, as he leads his tribe to safety from fierce animals, harsh cold and the enemies who would enslave them.
Stunningly visual, extraordinarily detailed, powerfully dramatic, here is the first volume of a remarkable new series . . . The First Americans.

When humans first walked the world, when nature ruled the earth and sky, a proud tribe is threatened by a series of natural disasters. A bold young hunter named Torka, who lost his wife and child to a killer mammoth, leads the survivors over the glacial tundra on a desperate eastward odyssey to the save their clan. Through attacks of savage animals and encounters with strangers not unlike themselves, they must brave the hardships of a foreign landscape and learn to live in an exotic new world of mystery and danger. They must travel toward the land where the sun rises for a new day for their clan--and an awesome future for the American.
