Title: I expected too much?
Review: Just as many other readers, I had almost given up on this series after the last book, but considering Ms. Auel spent so many years on this one, I thought she might offer her readers a fresh and intriguing sequel in The Shelters of Stone.NOT SO....reading 800 pages of bland jibberish is what makes me disappointed. She didn't even have a plot to the story! I appreciated her descriptions of the land and the crafts of the people in the other books as it was a part of the story. This time around, the scenery WAS the story. Did Ms. Auel write this book right after Plains of Passage and simply decide to publish it several years later to build a craving for this release? I thought Plains of passage was weak. I could have written a better sequel.Bottom line: The book was boring...
