Jean M. Auel’s enthralling Earth’s Children® series has become a literary phenomenon,   beloved by readers around the world.  In a brilliant novel as vividly authentic and   entertaining as those that came before, Jean M. Auel returns us to the earliest days   of humankind and to the captivating adventures of the courageous woman called Ayla.     With her companion, Jondalar, Ayla sets out on her most dangerous and daring journey--away   from the welcoming hearths of The Mammoth Hunters and into the unknown.  Their odyssey   spans a beautiful but sparsely populated and treacherous continent, the windswept   grasslands of Ice Age Europe, casting the pair among strangers.   Some will be intrigued   by Ayla and Jondalar, with their many innovative skills, including the taming of   wild horses and a wolf; others will avoid them, threatened by what they cannot understand;   and some will threaten them. But Ayla, with no memory of her own people, and Jondalar,   with a hunger to return to his, are impelled by their own deep drives to continue   their trek across the spectacular heart of an unmapped world to find that place they   can both call home.
