I’m looking for fiction stories set in caveman times. Not post-apocalyptic stories or nomads away from civilization stories mind you, but stories where there is no civilization yet. I’ll take “historical fiction” (if that applies here) or more fantastical settings as long as they have the right vibe.
I’ve always been somewhat fascinated by the Paleolithic. We spent most of our history living as hunter-gatherers, with modern civilization a small blip by comparison, but it doesn’t show up in storytelling that often.

: Arrr, what kind of scurvy landlubber would be interested in such a thing? Only a dirty, filthy pirate like meself would be intrigued by the thought of two men, one a dirty, stinking caveman, and the other a gay man, writin' their own brand of romance on the open seas. Arrrr!

: What do ye mean by only one of them be gay? There be plenty of gay pirates on this ship, and if ye can't handle it, ye can walk the plank.

this is something weird I noticed. Women seem to be much more into written porn compared to men who are almost exclusively into watched porn. Rare foid W?

I read the first one and then stopped after reading the reviews of the later books. It has its charm, like the mix between super neurodivergent anthropologic info dumps and psychedelic fantasy bullshit. The story is very repetitive though. It boils down to the Neanderthals debating: human can't be here no more -> oh wow human better than us at everything they can stay -> repeat like 4 times.

: Aye, what of it? You think because you've read a book you know all there is to know about us? You know nothing, landlubber. We take what we want and answer to no one. So unless you want to end up as shark bait, I suggest you turn your little boat around and head back to shore before I give the order to have me men fire on ye.
