Publishers Description: The second novel in Jean M. Auels magnificent epic of life 25,000 years ago when two kinds of human beings, Neanderthal and Cro-Magnon, shared the earth. Forced to leave the Clan and her young son, Ayla sets out alone to travel the frigid steppes until she finds the valley of horses. Unable to find people like herself, the Cro-Magnons, she settles there and seeks friendship elsewhere. First she adopts a young filly, then a wounded lion cub. But far to the west, two young Cro-Magnon brothers have begun a journey. One of them is Jondalar, whose destiny is bound inextricably with Aylas. Jean Auels imaginative reconstruction of pre-historic life, rich in detail of language, culture, myth and ritual, has become a set text in schools and colleges around the world. Industry Reviews Jean Auel has certainly left her mark in literary history with this series that continues to gather fans from all age groups. - Armidale ExpressIt has magic - Daily TelegraphA panorama of human culture in its infancy . . .
