The early history of Earth covers such vast stretches of time that years, centuries, and even millennia become virtually meaningless.

The cave dwellers of the Stone Age were brutish and primitive compared to the human civilizations that would follow. Their technological developments were limited, and their society and culture provided few lasting legacies.

The Necromancer of Darkoveld is coming. He’s racing over the waves with a fleet of ships. Within days, everything will be burned to ashes, unless Tex can solve the puzzle of the Necromancer’s weakness. In the meantime, he’ll also have to escape the clutches of a lovesick goddess, learn how to use new magic powers, and journey to the Underworld and back.
