THE VALLEY OF THE HORSES by Jean M Auel

The Valley of the Horses continues Jean M Auel's epic of the world as it was 25000 years ago: a world of glacial cold, terrifying beasts and intense loneliness.

Ayla sets out alone to travel the frigid steppes until she finds the valley of horses.  Unable to return to her childhood home, or to find people like herself, the Cro Magnon, she settles in the valley and seeks friendship and love elsewhere.  First she adopts a young filly whose dam she has killed for food; later, a wounded cave lion cub.

But far away to the west, two young men have begun a journey.  One of them is Jondalar, whose destiny is bound up inextricably with Ayla's.
