Negative Positive
Title: romance fans only
Review: If you have to know how Ayla's world turns out (Will she perform heart transplants? Power Zelandonii civilization with cold fusion? Tame a mammoth instead of eating it?) then by all means read this book. And, I think if you are a fan of Romance Fiction, like Nora Roberts or Diana Galbadon (sp?), then you would probably enjoy it.If, however, you want a gritty exposition of the human ice age, forget about it. Or, read the book for amusement value. Otherwise, read Clan of the Cave Bear and stop there. That book managed to be a great piece of storytelling. Shelters of Stone is a tired piece of romance fiction from an author who is obviously tired of writing the series.Best thing I can say about it: it is MUCH better than Plains of Passage, a throwaway effort on the part of Auel.
