THE CLAN OF THE CAVE BEARTHE VALLEY OF HORSESTHE PLAINS OF PASSAGETHE SHELTERS OF STONE
Once again, Jean M. Auel opens the door of time to reveal an age of wonder and
terror at the dawn of humanity. With all the skilled storytelling artistry and vivid
reality she brought to The Clan Of The Cave Bear and its sequel, The Valley Of Horses,
Jean M. Auel continues with the amazing epic journey of the woman called Ayla.
Now, with her devoted Jondalar, Ayla boldly sets forth into the land of the Mamutoi
--the Mammoth Hunters--the Others she has been seeking. Though Ayla must learn their
strange customs and language, it is because of her uncanny hunting and healing skills
that she is adopted into the Mammoth Hearth. Here Ayla finds her first women friends,
and painful memories of the Clan she left behind.
Here, too, is Ranec, the dark-skinned, magnetic master carver of ivory tusks to
whom Ayla is irresistibly drawn--setting Jondalar on fire with jealousy. Throughout
the icy winter, Ayla is torn between her two men. But soon will come the great spring
mammoth hunt, when Ayla must choose her mate and her destiny -- to remain in the
Hearth with Ranec, or to follow Jondalar into a far-off place and an unknown future.
