Media Reviews
"Jondar is the ultimate civilized Cro-Magnon, a well-muscled, artistic, spear-throwing Cary Grant. And it is Ayla...who invents oral sex, horseback riding, a new technique for making fire, and a better way of dragging the kill back to the cave. But despite all this 'The Valley of Horses' is great fun to read. Jean M. Auel has created ancestors who do us all credit."

Cry of the Wind
by Sue Harrison
An epic and powerful tale--rich and alive with atmosphere, adventure, poetic imagery, and colorful, unforgettable characters, CRY OF THE WIND is a magnificent saga of spirit, love and hardship that pits a determined primitive people against the fury of inhospitable nature, and against themselves. As winter looms in place of icy splendor near the top of the world, the healing woman K'os--cast out by her own people and enslaved by the leader of an enemy tribe--plots her revenge against those who defiled her many years ago. In the meantime, Chakliux--the abandoned child she raised as her own--has grown into a man of honor, a powerful hunter and storyteller. But his weakness is a tender heart. And his feelings for Aqamdax--a beautiful young woman and former slave mated to a cruel and dangerous tribesman--threatens them both, for it has inspired the hatred of those who would see them destroyed rather than united. Their search for understanding and acceptance sets Chakliux and Aqamdax on a path that will place them at the mercy of the vast tundra as the long season of ice closes in.

by John R. Dann

The Valley of Horses (Bk. 2)
Auel, Jean M
Bantam, June 1, 1983 . Paperback. Acceptable. This unforgettable odyssey into the distant past carries us back to the awesome mysteries of the exotic, primeval world of The Clan of the Cave Bear, and to Ayla, now grown into a beautiful and courageous young woman. \n\nCruelly cast out by the new leader of the ancient Clan that adopted her as a child, Ayla leaves those she loves behind and travels alone through a stark, open land filled with dangerous animals but few people, searching for the Others, tall and fair like herself. The short summer gives her little time to look, and when she finds a sheltered valley with a herd of hardy steppe horses, she decides to stay and prepare for the long glacial winter ahead. Living with the Clan has taught Ayla many skills but not real hunting. She finally knows she can survive when she traps a horse, which gives her meat and a warm pelt for the winter, but fate has bestowed a greater gift, an orphaned foal with whom she develops a unique kinship. One winter extends to more; she discovers a way to make fire more quickly and a wounded cave lion cub joins her unusual family, but her beloved animals don't fulfill her restless need for human companionship. Then she hears the sound of a man screaming in pain. She saves tall, handsome Jondalar, who brings her a language to speak and an awakening of love and desire, but Ayla is torn between her fear of leaving her valley and her hope of living with her own kind.
