Did you survive the Credit Crunch? Was it the end of the world or just a bubble of hysteria, headlines and job-searching headaches? Or, is the credit crisis just really beginning? What ever the answer, give up and buy The Bankers Who Sold the World.

The Bankers Who Sold the World

At the peak of the financial crisis, a high-flying team of morally bankrupt, egotistical, ambitious and international bankers flying to a global emergency financial bailout meeting are visited by a duo of egotistical, ambitious, intergalactic alien bankers. The alien banker, on behalf of an inter-galactic client, would like to buy into earth, and earth’s looking very cheap at the moment.

A Credit Crunch Comedy of Galactic Proportions.

For humanity the transformation from savagery into civilisation can only be led by heroes and geniuses, and new inventions, like the concept of zero, the first books and the use of metals, comes at a heavy price.
The tribes on the Peninsula are victims of cannibalism, plunder and genocide, from a marauding tribe of scavengers escaping the ravages of the mainland. To add to the hardship of the tribes on the Peninsula, the climate is changing, the game of the woods are few, and many predict a great hunger will come.
But one dwindling tribe on the Peninsula, The Plains People, are no longer reliant on hunting and gathering. They are masters of trade, gardens, metals and hieroglyphics, creating the finest arrowheads and the first books. However, their ingeniousness, resilience and superiority has made them outcasts, and all that remains of them are one old Chief and his five warrior daughters.
With growing uncertainty on the Peninsula, the Witch Doctor Zauer calls for renewed reverence to the Sun God. But Swifty, a young genius who invents the concept of zero, is a believer of knowledge over superstition. He feels set apart from his own kind and to follow his beliefs he must defect to all that remains of the smaller and technologically advanced Plains People, and face the consequences from his own tribe.
It isn’t easy being the chosen ones.
