3.0

I have enjoyed the entirety of this series but the first three books held much of the best parts. The last three are continued looks and time with characters I have grown to love however they were not as captivating as prior books. Auel has always excelled with her description and this book is further proof of that. If you’ve made it this far into the series, you might as well finish her off.
