![]() If I was forced to read every single word of this book it would have a lower rating but you tend to be able to read the first few words of a paragraph and be able to know if it's a continuation of the descriptive prose, or if it's begun a bit of storyline. It's a pity that 30% of the book can be skipped/skimmed as being a literary quagmire of indepth descriptions of how many regions grow willow, alder or conifer. It's a difficult read but I enjoyed every interraction had along the way. ![]() I tip my hat off to Ayla, I could never date a man like Jondalar, he'd drive me nuts. You feel like telling Ayla to get a move on and telling Jondalar to use a little empathy. Also Ayla and Jondalar continue to work out the kinks in their relationship. This in my opinion has one of the better plot lines in the series but it's also one of the most difficult reads to get through due to extensive descriptive prose. This book contains, nudity, sex, extreme misandry, mutilation, rape, violence and death. From Wolf always wanting to chew on leather to the effect that heat and humidity has on steppe horses who are built for cold, dry climates. She went into all the other struggles the couple had to face because they had the animals. ![]() ![]() I enjoy that Auel didn't treat their animal entourage as helpful sidekicks. ![]()
