The Inheritors Introduced by Ben Okri

<p><br/> <b>Hunt, trek, and feast among Neanderthals in this stunning novel by </b><br/> <b>the </b><br/> <b>radical Nobel Laureate and author of <br/> <i>Lord of the Flies</i>.</b><br/> <br/><br/> <i><br/> <b><br/> <br/><br/> This was a different voice; not the voice of the people. It was the voice of other.</b><br/> </i><br/> <br/><br/> <br/><br/> When spring comes, the people leave their winter cave, foraging for honey, grubs, and the hot richness of a deer's brain. They awaken the fire to heat their naked bodies, lay down their thorn bushes, and share pictures in their minds. But strange things are happening: inexplicable scents and sounds. Unimaginable beasts are half-glimpsed in the forest; upright creatures of bone-faces and deerskins. What the people don't know is that their day is already over ...<br/> <br/><br/> <br/><br/> <b>'Extraordinary ... Genius ...
