A cinematic fantasy event in audio. New Dakota: 15,000 CE, thousands of years after the fall of our civilization. The Earth has reclaimed the cities and glories of the modern world, returning humanity to a way of life that recalls advanced, ancient civilizations. The histories of the old world survive only as myths and legends. Our tale focuses on four heroes from the great tribes of what was once South Dakota. They are known as : The Wolves, The Rams, The Bears, and the Birds. Book I : The Dawn Age introduced us to the world and the heroes who we’ll follow as we chart the rise of the first Empire of this new world. Book II : The Seed of Whiterock, begins to weave our worlds and hero quests together as their destinies collide amidst the backdrop of war, natural catastrophes, inflamed rivalries, new alliances, loves and losses. All of them will be tested as the world heaves toward its new age, The Dawn Age. A place where new legends are born and a time when all things return.

Hufdud ,

Great, I need more

The stories, performances, and audio were all amazing but with only four real episodes, each focusing on a completely new character and society, I felt unsatisfied with how much the stories were able to progress. We need the next season soon because right now it feels like very little has actually happened and we've mostly just received backstories. The episodes were only really long enough to get you interested in the character and then suddenly they ended. I hope the next season has more episodes so it doesn't feel so short.

Otherwise great show though!

HappyGenny ,

Sound work great. Acting sucks.

I got really annoyed by the affected posturing that passes for acting. Too many sentences spat out in a form of cliche over-acting that reminds me of high school drama class. Over acting ruins whatever character development that might have been. William Shatner would love it.

Why are most characters on this show having tantrums?

To be fair, I listened to only one episode but got too annoyed to continue. I was really intrigued by the topic (always been a big fan of the Clan of the Bear Cave Series by Jean M. Auel) and I love fiction podcasts but there was so much drama and screaming in the first episode that I have no interest in listening to more of it. Acting and sound were good I guess but the scenario was too dramatic and loud.
