80,000 years ago, fire meant power. When a tribe is attacked by another aggressive tribe and their source of fire is stolen, three tribesmen travel in a quest for fire. They retrieve the source of fire from a primitive group of cannibals and a female prisoner escapes death. She follows the trio. Anthony Burgess created the primitive language for the early humans in this prehistoric adventure about a trio of warriors who travel the savanna, encountering sabre-toothed tigers, mammoths and cannibalistic tribes in search of a flame that would replace the fire their tribe has lost.
