Once upon a time, a man lived in a cave in the mountains. Blind in one eye, missing an arm up to the elbow, and with a severe limp. Such injuries are unbearable in the wild, yet he lived a long life. How? Someone brought him food. Someone stayed by his side. His bones were discovered by archaeologists, and this became one of the first historical proofs that humans have superpowers.

This is where the book about how man became man begins. It's not a story about kings, countries, and wars—it's about people. It's about how fish became our distant relatives, why our ancestors tamed fire, why some settled while others wandered, how the horse opened half the world to humanity, and why everyone was once afraid of the common potato. It's also about hunger, which humans have battled throughout history, and the still-unanswered question: can it be conquered forever?

This is the first book in a large book series: the entire history of humanity—from ancient times to the present day—in five seasons. And it's about how humans learned to live with nature.
