The valley of horses

Horrible after the chapters with Ayala by herself. I didn't know this would be filled with all the graphic sexual content. I skipped the chapters with the male character. I did not get to 100% complete for the book. I will not finish the series, not my type of book.

This second book of the series was just as good as the first.

3.5 stars. Some of the survivalist and toolmaking explanations were a little drawn out for me and there was a lot of explicit sex scenes at the end which felt OTT - one or two would have been more than sufficient for the plot. It was largely an enjoyable read though.

Suddenly our heroine is trapped in a romance novel. She can't stop talking about that one time, with those mean hyenas. The heroine and hero spend most of the book embroiled in classic romance miscommunication, while also occasionally propelling homo sapiens sapiens toward glory. SHE TAMES A CAVE LION FOR GOD'S SAKE. I have no idea how this book followed the first.

The second novel in the Earth's Children series, Jean M. Auel's internationally bestselling reconstruction of pre-historic life, when two kinds of human beings, Neanderthal and Cro-Magnon, shared the earth. Forced to leave the Clan and her young son, Ayla sets out alone to travel the frigid steppes until she comes across the valley of horses. Unable to find people like herself, the Cro-Magnons, she settles there and seeks friendship elsewhere. First she adopts a young filly, then a wounded lion cub. But far to the west, two young Cro-Magnon brothers have begun a journey. One of them is Jondalar, whose destiny is bound inextricably with Ayla's. Set 25,000 years in the past, yet utterly relatable today, The Valley of Horses is an epic tale of love, identity and the struggle to survive, rich in detail of language, culture, myth and ritual. Praise for Jean M. Auel 'Beautiful, exciting, imaginative' New York Times 'A major bestseller . . . A remarkable work of imagination' Daily Express
