Before there were nations, machines, or screens, there were stories told by firelight. Stories meant to explain not how the world works, but how to live within it.When Fire Was Enough is a mythic, poetic journey into humanity's earliest ways of understanding life. Drawing from ancient cultures across the world-Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Europe, and the Americas-this book retells foundational myths, parables, and forgotten moments with lyrical clarity and modern resonance.These are stories about gathering and hunger, love and loss, work and power, doubt and recognition. They explore why we tell stories at all-and what those stories once gave us: meaning, orientation, courage, and a sense of belonging in a vast and mysterious world.Written in narrative poetry and poetic prose, the book bridges literature, mythology, and philosophy. Each piece stands on its own, yet together they form a quiet arc-from humanity's earliest questions to the enduring truths we still carry. This is not nostalgia for the past, but a return to something essential: the human need for shared meaning.When Fire Was Enough is for readers who love timeless storytelling, mythic depth, and reflective lit

Hirad Abadi is the author of imaginative fiction that explores the borderlands between reason and wonder, logic and myth.Fascinated by the moment when certainty begins to crack, Abadi writes stories in which rational minds encounter realities they cannot fully explain. His work often blends mystery, philosophical inquiry, and gentle humor, inviting readers to question not only what is true, but how truth itself is recognized.The Fairy Detective is a playful and reflective homage to classic detective fiction, reimagining the genre through a lens of curiosity, skepticism, and unexpected enchantment.When not writing, Abadi is usually reading old case files, wandering through ideas that refuse to stay solved, or listening for the places where stories insist on being told.
