A paperback version of ‘The Dry Lands’ by Simon J. Townley is now available, with more print versions of Beardale publications to follow soon.
‘The Dry Lands’ is the first in the ‘Koriba’ series of books set in deep prehistory. The stories take place in Africa around 43,000 years BCE. They follow the fortunes of Temfe, a young man of the Koriba tribe and son of the chief. In the first book, the homelands where the tribe has lived for longer than anyone can remember have slowly become surrounded by uncrossable deserts. The tribe is cut off from the world, and the hunting are shrinking as climate change deepens and the rain don’t come.
Temfe and the other young men of the tribe set out to find away across the dry lands, and save their people.
