Iza and Creb, the old Mog-ur, grow to love her, and as Ayla learns the ways of the Clan and Iza's way of healing, most come to accept her.

    EXCELLENT book...VERY WELL packaged. The item arrived disgracefully late, but this is no fault of the seller, who clearly mailed it on he date he claimed. The good old USPS messed this one up. At one point, tracking records said the package had been delivered to a front porch in some godforsaken burg somewhere in Middle Tennessee, hundred of miles from me. Reckon they recovered it and sent it on. Annoying. But not at all the seller's fault. I'd certainly buy here again.

    Shipping was fast and well-packed. However, I would rate the book as "Fair" condition, not "Very Good" as advertised. Many pages were highlighted with writing in margins, and there was a significant water stain. This seller might tend to be optimistic when describing condition.

    Excellent Read

    I read this book many years ago and enjoyed it so much that I knew that I would be reading it again, but have moved several times since then, my copy was misplaced and finally disappeared all together. I have now obtained a used copy of this excellent book and am again captivated by this depiction of a thoroughly modern woman in a prehistoric world. The descriptions of the characters is completely believable and compelling. Descriptive passages of people of the stone age world and their environment are vivid. Much of the story takes place in Ayla's mind as her emerging evolutionary intellect enables her to cope with the perils and challenges of a very dangerous and violent young Earth.

    Well written tale about a long time ago. I had this book as a hand-me-down years ago and thoroughly enjoyed it. This particular book arrived on schedule and was delivered as described.

  • must read

    I have not been able to read it but highly recommended by many that had. Confused as to why the cover on the book I received is different than the one showed though. I am hoping it is the same.
