This story begins with an alien race from a neighboring planet descending on Earth to study its inhabitants. At that time, the world was dominated by purely instinctual animals, that being dinosaurs. While excavating a site for an underground facility, they uncovered fossils going back in excess of 150 million years and determined dinosaurs haven't evolved significantly throughout their existence. However, there were breeds that did show some promise, so they came up with two plans to promote them by extinguishing their competition. The first one failed miserably, but the second was successful. They let evolution take its course for about sixty million years until future generations decided to manipulate primates' DNA. After progressing through several anomalous species, eventually four distinctly different races of humans were created. The first of these were Caucasians, developed by a rouge alien faction on an island located in the Indian Ocean after fleeing Africa because they felt oppressed by superiors who were impeding their progress. As time went by, these humans grew restless, so they decided to explore new horizons. A few groups settled in and around Africa, where they inevitably came in contact with substandard-product species engineered by rival alien factions, and after a while, they exchanged with humans by their design. From this point on, they engaged in many exciting endeavors. The book is filled with intricately detailed subplots that keep readers on the edge of their seats until the final chapter, when a completely unique cataclysm nearly wipes out life on planet Earth.
