Book Six about the life and adventures of Jondalar and Ayla. For the most part, I enjoyed this book. You can tell Auel did a great deal of research. On the down side, there are MANY characters to try to remember and some parts are repetitive (how many times does Ayla have to introduce herself and all her ties? How many times does the Earth Mother song need to be repeated? How many times do we need to hear about how wonderful Ayla is with animals?) These parts were a bit annoying, but not enough to detract me too much from enjoying the main storyline. Looking forward to no. 7!
