Book Overview

This novel of awesome beauty and power is a moving saga about people, relationships, and the boundaries of love. Nominated as one of America's best-loved novels by PBS's The Great American Read Through Jean M. Auel's magnificent storytelling we are taken back to the dawn of modern humans, and with a girl named Ayla we are swept up in the harsh and beautiful Ice Age world they shared with the ones who called themselves the Clan of the Cave Bear . A natural disaster leaves the young girl wandering alone in an unfamiliar and dangerous land until she is found by a woman of the Clan, people very different from her own kind. To them, blond, blue-eyed Ayla looks peculiar and ugly--she is one of the Others, those who have moved into their ancient homeland; but Iza cannot leave the girl to die and takes her with them. Iza and Creb, the old Mog-ur, grow to love her, and as Ayla learns the ways of the Clan and Iza's way of healing, most come to accept her. But the brutal and proud youth who is destined to become their next leader sees her differences as a threat to his authority. He develops a deep and abiding hatred for the strange girl of the Others who lives in their midst, and is determined to get his revenge. This description may be from another edition of this product.

Absolutely incredible

This series has completely blown me away! I am currently on the last book "The land of painted caves" from this series and I am sad and thrilled at the same time. I really do not want it to end. I have been dedicated to these books for weeks now.

The entire series is amazing.

By far, one of my most favorite series, with a high possibility of being my most favorite series. My father has raved about this series for as long as I can remember, so I finally got him to settle down about it when I found and read all books, the final installment was one that he had not read before, so he was also thrilled.
