I didn't read this book when it first came out, although I did hear about it. Now that I have read it, I can't get enough of the series of books and reading about the time period itself. It is very fascinating to think about early modern humans, Cro Magnons, living close to the Neaderthals. You can tell that the author really did a lot of research. So much is unknown, that much needed to be made up to tell a story like this. What truly makes me love these books are the characters. They seem so real, and they are so interesting. It makes me want to go back to this time and find Ayla, surely, she must have been a real person.... in my mind, she will always be there.

Mostly for people who like a longer story, with lots of adventure. People who are interested in thinking about history, or differences in people.... where we came from and who we are. It is a five star rating for me.
