![]() ![]() I can hardly believe it! I can hardly believe that we've reviewed three of the book here at Bookbag but not the first, most important, one. Oh my giddy aunt! It's been ten years since this first volume in Michelle Paver's Chronicles of Ancient Darkness series was first released. So this will be a journey of discovery, too. Isolated from the clans since he was born, Torak doesn't know the truth behind the many secrets his father kept from him. Before Fa dies, he makes Torak swear an oath: he will journey to the mountain of the World Spirit and save the people of the forest from this creature of destruction. And they believe in demons.Īnd a demon in the form of a bear has killed Torak's father. They see the sacred in the seasons and the cycle of the moon. Torak and his people also understand spirituality. ![]() A deer provides them not only with food, but also with clothes, water carriers, shoes, rope, even needles. They revere the animals they hunt and never waste an ounce of prey. Living six thousand years ago, after the Ice Age but before the spread of agriculture, Torak and his people understand the natural world. ![]()
