Summary
Clan of the Cave Bear is the first novel in Jean M. Auel's magnificent best-selling epic of life 35,000 years ago. Leave the 21st century and go back to Ice Age Europe. Follow Ayla, a Cro-Magnon child who loses her parents in an earthquake and is adopted by a tribe of Neanderthal, the Clan. See how the Clan's wary suspicion is gradually transformed into acceptance of this girl, so different from them, under the guidance of its medicine woman, Iza, and its wise holy man, Creb. Immerse yourself in a world dictated by the demands of survival in a hostile environment, and be swept away in an epic tale of love, identity and struggle.

Well researched by author and well narrated.
A good, believable work of fiction. It brought to life the day to day living of pre historical man.
I would recommend this book to those with an interest in archeology and different ways of life.

Loved this
What a story and so vividly brought to life! While recent scientific discoveries have disproved some of the themes, it was very interesting to listen to the story, and be inspired to read some articles about recent Neanderthal understanding.

cave bear
I liked the premis of the tale. The ways pf the clan are prettycool, this reminded me of the movie Avatar in subtle ways. I developed a conection to the main character, at which point there was some pretty upsetting violence, I was almost tempted to stop reading as it seemed a little unnecessary and I was effected by it. I did finish and Im glad I did. over all it was an enjoyable experience

A good listen
Apart for some unbelievable jumps in the clans understanding, after shocks, conception etc, it was a good book. Not sure how much research was done or where the proof clans/clan gatherings etc was found, but if you can put all of that to one side you will like the book.
