Jean M. Auel

The plains of passage

Jaymie Lemke

This book was not as good as the first three, I gave it a higher rating only because I liked the previous books so much.

Ayla and Jondalar journey across Ice Age Europe, impressing the primitive tribes--she with her ability to communicate with animals, and he with his mastery of the tools of war.

This book had a lot going on.... a lot of different tribes that were met with along the way...some pleasant and some not. and loads of "interaction" between Ayla and Johndalar if you know what I mean..lol. I want to hurry to read book 5&6 soon because I feel like I know how the series will end and I'm a little sad if what I am thinking will come true...there's no other way it could end.

The fourth novel in the Earth's Children series, Jean M. Auel's internationally bestselling epic of life 25,000 years ago when two kinds of human beings, Neanderthal and Cro-Magnon, shared the earth. Ayla and Jondalar have left the safety of the lands of the Mammoth Hunters and embarked on a seemingly impossible journey across an entire continent. Their goal is the Cro-Magnon settlement in what is now southern France where Jondalar lived as a young man. Accompanied by the half-tame Wolf, the stallion, Racer, and the mare, Whinney, they are forced to brave both savage enemies and the elemental dangers of weather and terrain in their search for the place that will become Home. Set 25,000 years in the past, yet utterly relatable today, The Mammoth Hunters is an epic tale of love, identity and the struggle to survive, rich in detail of language, culture, myth and ritual. Praise for Jean M. Auel 'Beautiful, exciting, imaginative' New York Times 'A major bestseller . . . A remarkable work of imagination' Daily Express
