Finished my book while the puppy napped. This was an enjoyable read featuring the first people to come across what is now the Bering Strait back at the end of the Ice Age. The characters aren‘t super developed but their relationships are quite dynamic and I really enjoyed the “politics” between tribes. Started sort of slowly but built to a dramatic end. This is the first in a very long series of standalones. Will probably work my way thru slowly.

I‘ve seen this book compared to Jean Auel‘s The Clan of the Cave Bear (one of my favorites) but since I‘m only one-third thru, I don‘t have any concrete opinions about that yet. Both are pre-history in terms of time period and both have the characters on a long journey. Otherwise the writing is very different and the characters are too. I‘m enjoying this read. #currentlyreading

bookaholic1 I have read every one of these books, each one is of a different tribe, so different from THE CLAN OF THE CAVE BEAR series, but so good. Hope your enjoying it 3y
intothehallofbooks @bookaholic1 Ooohh thank you for telling me this!! I am definitely enjoying this story. I keep trying to steal time to read a few pages here and there. I own several of these books. This makes me excited to keep going 😊 3y
bookaholic1 @intothehallofbooks I am so glad...there are some that are a series of three, just so you know 3y

When visiting New Orleans, I stopped by all the bookstores I saw while wandering the French Quarter—almost all of them were used bookstores. One of my favorites was the Librairie Book Shop, a cute little place on Chartres Street. I visited twice!

Used bookstores have a magical quality to them—a hint of mystery and excitement, because you‘re not quite sure what you‘ll find inside. And if I can find a stack of mass market fantasies? Even better.

Mdargusch I can‘t wait to check this out next time I‘m there! 6y

When I read the introduction I didn't think I was going to be able to make it through this book--there were A LOT of adjectives, so many that i was irritated rather than inspired. Luckily the story itself is not written that way and at about halfway, I'm really enjoying it. Which is good for me since I have almost 20 of these books waiting to be read

ReadingOver50 Is it part of a series? 8y
Texreader I've read countless of these books and have many in my tbr pile. I normally find them to be good reads. 8y
Texreader @ReadingOver50 I don't think there's a series from what I remember. Each book focuses on a different geographical area, tribe and slightly different historical timeframe. Littens? Correct me if I'm wrong. 8y
KtheBookwyrm @Texreader @ReadingOver50 I think it's technically a series in that they're all "novels of north america's forgotten past" but I think you are correct in the sense that it doesn't follow one group of characters/people, but moves around to different groups and times. 8y
