“The Complete Legends of The Big Game” is an amazing journey into an ancient universe and the attempt of two spirits to effect its future for Good or Evil...through a game. An inhabited world is created as a game piece. Fighter for Chaos (Fighter) strives to destroy it ...and destroy it... and destroy it again...until he wins the game. New creatures are formed by the Spirit of Good (Spirit) to combat lethal treachery, but Fighter finds repeated methods to ruin a developing earth. Fighter exploits all the violent tendencies of early humans to wreck it while Spirit’s supporters bemoan Spirit’s apparently inept play calling and sad results. Some supporters of Team Good will not live to tell the tale, but Spirit is counting on a secret weapon if it can get into the game before the 4th Quarter ...Legend IV. Animals and humans unite for a world-changing event on the field of play that cannot be anticipated. The Big Game must be won to save the universe! (Note: This book is a compilation and rewrite of two books with nearly the same name. This book is better!)

Legends III and IV pick up where Legends I and II left off. They reveal the second half of a game already in progress between two spirits (Spirit and Fighter). They are playing the game for the right to dictate the fate of the world for good or evil. Early humans are entirely evil with no sense of right and wrong. Fighter is winning the game. To fix this problem, Spirit has placed a tiny Scrap baby with a human King and Queen. Scraps were made at the beginning of time with the knowledge of right and wrong, but they are tiny (three inches—full grown!). The humans accept the Scrap baby as their own and expect him to grow. He doesn’t. Spirit expects the adopted child to learn how to be a Conscience and help humans. Unfortunately, nobody tells the Scrap child about this. He feels that he is a useless runt. Fighter is close to winning the game. The fate of the world hangs in the balance. Will the Scrap child become a man in time to learn about his destiny and save his adopted father and the world? A final battle will determine the fate of the world forever.

National Book Award Finalist: “This man’s ideas may be the most influential, not to say controversial, of the second half of the twentieth century.”—Columbus Dispatch At the heart of this classic, seminal book is Julian Jaynes's still-controversial thesis that human consciousness did not begin far back in animal evolution but instead is a learned process that came about only three thousand years ago and is still developing. The implications of this revolutionary scientific paradigm extend into virtually every aspect of our psychology, our history and culture, our religion—and indeed our future. “Don’t be put off by the academic title of Julian Jaynes’s The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind. Its prose is always lucid and often lyrical…he unfolds his case with the utmost intellectual rigor.”—The New York Times “When Julian Jaynes . . . speculates that until late in the twentieth millennium BC men had no consciousness but were automatically obeying the voices of the gods, we are astounded but compelled to follow this remarkable thesis.”—John Updike, The New Yorker “He is as startling as Freud was in The Interpretation of Dreams, and Jaynes is equally as adept at forcing a new view of known human behavior.”—American Journal of Psychiatry
