From the moment Homo Sapiens descended from the trees, possibly onto their heads, humanity has striven towards civilisation. Fire. The Wheel. Running Away from Furry Things with More Teeth than One Might Reasonably Expect - all are testament to man's ultimate supremacy.
It is a noble story, a triumph of intelligence over adversity and so, of course, complete and utter fiction. For one man has discovered the hideous truth: that humanity's ascent has been ruthlessly guided by a small gang of devious frogs. Frogs that rule the Universe.
The man's name is David Perkins and his theory is not, on the whole, widely admired, particularly not by the frogs themselves who had, frankly, invested a great deal of time and effort in keeping the whole thing quiet. Happily for humanity, however, very little of the above is actually true either. Unhappily, things are a lot, lot worse.
