FREE: The Land of Painted Caves, paperback, by Jean M. Auel (Clan of the Cave Bear series)

The listing, The Land of Painted Caves, paperback, by Jean M. Auel (Clan of the Cave Bear series) has ended.

This is a brand new paperback book I bought from our local bookstore, Mountain Books, in Sonora, California, not realizing I already had a copy at home! This is the most recent book, the 6th in Jean Auel's "Earth's Children" series, which started with "The Clan of the Cave Bear."

In The Land of Painted Caves, Jean M. Auel brings her ice-age epic series, Earth’s Children®, to an extraordinary conclusion. As the story opens, Ayla, Jondalar, and their infant daughter, Jonayla, are living with the Zelandonii in the Ninth Cave. Ayla has been chosen as an acolyte to a spiritual leader and begins arduous training tasks. Whatever obstacles she faces, Ayla finds inventive ways to lessen the difficulties of daily life, searching for wild edibles to make meals and experimenting with techniques to ease the long journeys the Zelandonii must take while honing her skills as a healer and a leader. And there are the Sacred Caves that Ayla’s mentor takes her to see. They are filled with remarkable paintings of mammoths, lions, and bears, and their mystical aura at times overwhelms Ayla. But all the time Ayala has spent in training rituals has caused Jondalar to drift away from her. The rituals themselves bring her close to death, but through them Ayla gains A Gift of Knowledge so important that it will change her world. ISBN 9780553289435, 828 pages.
