I mean this is an 800 page book. Finally around page 600 a mildly interesting side incident occurs. But in all, this is not only the worse of this wonderful series, it is one of worse books I have EVER read, and I read alot. As I told my girlfriend who recommends books to be and vice versa, DON'T buy it in hardcover. Wait until you can get it in a yard sale in paperback. If Ms. Auel's intent was to leave us not missing Ayla, she was successful.
Oh Darn! I was looking forward to it as well. But I've seen other reviews, and they all say it is pretty boring. Guess I won't be getting this one for my e-reader. Thanks for the book report!
