This high fantasy novel is about a world before this world, a world that did exist and a world that might have existed.
Chronicles of the Unremembered Age could be read as a sweeping outdoor adventure, a vast fresco of non-Western mythologies and social experiments, a cautionary tale, or a timeless playbook on how to be a full-fledged human being.
In a time before memory, in an earth before nations, fates became entangled by a portent. It was the day when the world before this world started to draw to a close. It befell in days of yore, it could happen again, anytime, anywhere. Warped by myriad iterations, shreds of events were twisted into yarns by myth-weavers to bequeath us universal truths. Such was the weft on which the Chronicles of the Unremembered Age were once woven.
