About this eBook

A true publishing phenomenon, Jean M. Auel's prehistoric odyssey is one of the best-loved sagas of our time. Leave 21st century London 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.

All six parts of the legendary Earth's Children® series are brought together in this eBook omnibus

THE CLAN OF THE CAVE BEAR
THE VALLEY OF HORSES
THE MAMMOTH HUNTERS
THE PLAINS OF PASSAGE
THE SHELTERS OF STONE
THE LAND OF PAINTED CAVES

Jean Auel combines her brilliant narrative skills and appealing characters with a remarkable re-creation of the way life was lived thousands of years ago, rendering the terrain, dwelling places, longings, beliefs, creativity and daily lives of Ice Age Europeans as real to the reader as today's news.

'Among modern epic spinners, Auel has few peers.' - Kirkus Reviews

I hate reading novels. I find them difficult to engage with, possibly as a result of the way teaching was undertaken at high school. This, however, changed the moment I picked up the first book. At every possible moment in the day, I was deeply engrossed in it. Jean M Auel's writing skills are incredible. Her ability to put the reader in the story I found amazing. For me, a non-reader to say this speaks volumes of the series. Do yourself a favour, grab the series. I really do not think that you will be disappointed
