DEEPDIVE

Before disaster erased thecoastlines and river valleys of the Antediluvian age—before the mythicFlood—men and women struggled and innovated in a world of savagecontrasts. It turns out that our legends of the Stone Age are even older than wethink. It was a time when a world of archetypes and myths was written upon thefabric of humanity in the deepest way—a world that has only been preservedin the oldest stories with no way to actually visitit.

Untilnow.

In a brilliant and dangerousbrain-hacking experiment, Harv Leonel and Tara Mukherjee are about to discoverentire lifetimes of human memory coded in our genes, and reveal ancientlegends—from knights and trolls to the birth of humanity itself—thatare very real. And verydeadly.
