Once, Britain and the European continent were bound by a land bridge, Doggerland, throughout most of the last Ice Age. The wide river valleys comprising Doggerland teemed with wildlife, flora and humans. Millenia passed and a hunter-gatherer population flourished along the shores and marshes of Doggerland. But the Ice Age subsided, glaciers melted and the sea began to rise. No low tide pulled back the floods, and those who survived were crowded into an ever shrinking stretch of habitable land. Doggerlander tells the story of a young daughter and sister of a small tribe as she learns to wield a blade and endure in a wild that is changing all around her people in ways never before seen in their history. She witnesses the destruction of her home under the insatiable greed of the rising sea. She suffers the demeaning betrayal of a young betrothal to an unfamiliar man from a strange tribe. And, she is party to the violence and havoc wrought by tribes colliding into one another as they clash over what diminishing patch of earth remains above the surface.
