Cool picture! Reminds me of my (totally one-sided) feud with Big Media.

When I was a kid I was gifted a copy of Michelle Paver's Wolf Brother, and because of that I developed a keen interest for pre-historic civilisations.

... And that interest went barely anywhere because there's so little fiction about it. Fantasy always focuses on generic European-inspired Middle Ages and fails to explore other interesting time periods and settings. I did love Ape Escape and Age of Empires, though <3

Damn you, Big Media! You're almost as bad as Big Battery there, forcing me to buy both AA and AAA batteries, and no matter what, when I buy something that needs batteries, my spares are always the wrong ones.
