A Novel.
In the tradition of Olaf Stapledon and HG Wells, Stephen Baxter takes on the epic story of the evolution of life on Earth.
From their beginnings foraging at the feet of the dinosaurs, through the apocalypse of an asteroid strike, through countless years of the day to day life and death dramas of survival, to the rise and fall of mankind and the final destruction of Earth by the expanding sun - the primates have survived. This is their story.
'Evolution' follows the fortunes of one group of creatures as they change and adapt to their world somewhere on the horn of Africa. It turns the story of Darwinian evolution into a constant drama, a heroic story of life's endurance. It is a story that transcends generations, species, mankind and, in the end, the Earth itself.
