Beautiful writing and a heroine that, without words, made this reader completely bond with her.
Incredibly inventive story with such diligent attention to detail that you could almost convince yourself that it was nonfiction. This was no accident as Ms. Auel definitely had done her homework and research.
Simply a wonderful book.”
