The fifth 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.Ayla and Jondalar have reached home: the Ninth Cave of the Zelandonii, the old stone age settlement in the region known today as south-west France. Ayla has much to learn from the Zelandonii as well as much to teach them. Jondalar's family are initially wary of the beautiful young woman he has brought back, with her strange accent and her tame wolf and horses. She is delighted when she meets Zelandoni, the spiritual leader of her people, a fellow healer with whom she can share her medicinal skills.After the rigours and dangers that have characterised her extraordinary life, Ayla yearns for peace and tranquility; to be Jondalar's mate and to have children. But her unique spiritual gifts cannot be ignored, and even as she gives birth to their eagerly-awaited child, she is coming to accept that she has a greater role to play in the destiny of the Zelandonii.Set 25,000 years in the past, yet utterly relatable today, The Shelters of Stone 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

Jean Auel is as remarkable a figure as J R R Tolkien. Independent Magazine Jean M. Auel has meticulously researched her subject and this latest book should continue the huge success of the series. Hello As always, Auel has meticulously researched her prehistoric subject and this latest offering is a triumphant continuation of the saga. Irish News (Belfast) Massive in scope Daily Mirror Impeccable research makes this much more than a fantasy reconstruction of prehistoric life.

Publishers Weekly Enthralling, exciting and impossible to put down. York Evening Press A rewarding read. A brilliant work of imagination Good Book Guide
