Ayla is on her own, figuring out fire and animal domestication. And the pre-historic Casanova known as Jondolar is slowly making his way to her. Boom-chicka-bow-wow ensues. 😂
Not sure there's much else to say. Auel's very convenient way of getting Ayla to remember speech was rather contrived, but I was able to roll with it for the sake of the story. It was cool to see Ayla figuring out how to live on her own, even if she was lonely, and how she adapted. Jondolar and his brother's journey along the Danube and the tribes of peoples they meet along the way was interesting too. Just not very much of a plot, overall.

The continuing adventures of Ayla. The introduction of Jondalar and the many people that shaped him on his journey to find Ayla was moving and wonderful. I can not wait to see what happens with her adventures into the mammoth hunters, the Mamutoi, world.

Developed a bit too much into just a "feel good" book. There is conflict and struggle but never any doubt that there will be a simple and easy-than-it-should-be resolutions leading to a happy "everybody wins" ending.
Still, it was a fairly captivating book with really great detail about an interesting subject, prehistoric humans.
