Volume 1. The Spark. The Beginning

Two brothers — paleontologist Miron and engineer Arsen — go for a barbecue in a forest near Moscow. A sudden landslide carries them away into a primitive world where there are no cities, no metal, not even familiar stars. They are met by the "Grey Lynxes" tribe, who take the strangers for fire spirits. To survive, the brothers use their knowledge: they teach people to make fire, mold clay pottery, craft spear-throwers and bows. Miron and Arsen become teachers, warriors, and friends to the wild tribe. But can their "spark" of civilization ignite a new world? The first book in a series about travelers who build the future where there is none.
