A review by atheriaque
The Clan of the Cave Bear, by Jean M. Auel

4.0

A good story but a LOT to read. Would get 3.5/5 if it was an option. The scenario is very interesting but there were times when I wasn't sure I could finish the book. I'm glad I did though because eventually the story moved along and the paragraph after paragraph of plant root and leaf descriptions became storyline. I guess I am still somewhat annoyed by the constant Ayla/Broud drama, but I guess it was necessary to the story. Hoping the next in the series is a little better, but I also really did end up liking this book.
