4.0
1. The Clan of the Cave Bear ★★★★★
2. The Valley of Horses ★★★★★
3. The Mammoth Hunters ★★★★
4. The Plains of Passage ★★★★★
5. The Shelters of Stone ★★★★★
6. The Land of Painted Caves ★★★★
I still love Ayla and Jondalar of course, and this whole world. But this was one of my least favourite in the series. I was so upset that Ayla was so encouraged to become Zelandonii (one who serves the mother). I almost felt like they were trying to contain her wild spirit because they were afraid of her. I really wish she had not agreed and had stayed wild and free forever. Also Ayla and Jondalar drove me crazy with their jealousy in this like they did in [b:The Mammoth Hunters|49824|The Mammoth Hunters (Earth's Children, #3)|Jean M. Auel|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1388257676s/49824.jpg|927520]. I thought they would have learned their lesson last time. They made a lot of the same mistakes again. But at least it was only the last 3 hours of the audio and not the whole book. This really wasnt the best way to end the series.
