Cast out of the Clan that is all she has ever known, Ayla, a Cro-Magnon woman raised by Neanderthals, ventures forth alone into a strange world. Resourceful and inventive, Ayla is able to craft a comfortable life for herself, but her loneliness and longing for the family she once knew is almost unbearable. As the harsh winter turns to spring, into Ayla's valley comes a new group of people with faces like her own, and to whom the peculiarities that once set her apart are accepted and celebrated. Among them, Ayla may find a second home and a first love.

Being a young teenager at the time of reading - I absolutely loved the ‘idea' that Ayla was the first person to ever ride on a horse - AND she was a woman! Yeeehaa!
I'm soooooo glad this one had Such a better ending than the first one!!! As soon as my neck stops bothering me, I'm going to start the third one!!!
