On the continent of the Americas, in the early stages of modern man's development, one tribe invented the Clovis point - a finely chiselled stone arrowhead which, combined with a throwing stick, was the equivalent of the invention of the nuclear bomb thousands of years later. In the Chronicles of Stone trilogy, we meet twins Souk and Trei and follow their journey as they break with their own tribe's traditions and set out to find the technology they have heard so much about - a technology that has changed the balance of power within the scattered tribes.
Award-winning author Vincent Ford built up a strong following among junior readers with his hilarious 2MUCH4U series, the emotionally charged A Handful of Blue, and more recently BOYZNBIKES. Chronicles of Stone brilliantly marks his first foray into writing books for an older audience both teens and adults.
