Pros Interesting story with a lot of detail.
Cons Characters a little too perfect at times.
Recommended it? Yes

Preparing for the last book in the series to come out, I decided to reread the first five books.  I have to say, this 2nd book, Valley of the Horses, is probably my favorite in the series.  The weird thing is, I'm not quite sure why.  There are tons of problems with this book, but...

Pros Amazing details of ice age life
Cons Cliches, and misses a central piece of the storytelling art
Recommended it? No

I must say that when I first read The Valley of the Horses, I was duly impressed by the immense detail of Stone Age life, and the obviously loving research that had gone into figuring out how a woman might survive alone in the wilderness. Jean Auel makes you feel like you could go skin a cave bear... Read full review »

Spectacular addition to the series...

Pros Wonderful story, amazing details of ice age life
Cons none
Recommended it? Yes

This was the first book in the series I read, then Clan of the Cave Bear. This was because years ago my mom figured I still loved horses like a 9 year old and the book had a "horsey" name, but I am glad I started on the books regardless.

The Valley of the Horses is a magnificent addition... Read full review »

And In Comes The Man In Her Life

5 Helpfuls 6 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Pick up right where the last one left off, detailed and historically interesting
Cons gets bogged down in details not essential to the plot
Recommended it? Yes

This is the sequel to Auel's first book, Clan of the Cave Bear. If you haven't read it, do so before reading this one, or you won't understand the main female character, Ayla, at all.

This book pick up just where the last left off. You follow Ayla and she starts her young adulthood. It... Read full review »

Pros Enjoyable, Entertaining, Engaging
Cons none
Recommended it? Yes

Jean M. Auel has done a spectacular job of recreating the time period in which Ayla (the main character) lives. I cannot even begin to imagine the amount of research which must have gone into the books in this series. This book is well written, and way beyond any critisicm if you ask me... Read full review »
