Jean M. Auel's Earth's Children series follows Ayla, a Cro-Magnon girl growing up in prehistoric Europe after she is separated from her own people and taken in by a Neanderthal clan. Across six novels, her life expands from survival within the Clan to travel, relationships, new communities and encounters with different prehistoric cultures. The story is continuous, so The Clan of the Cave Bear is the essential starting point and the books should be read in order. These are long, detailed novels that mix adventure and romance with extensive descriptions of food, tools, hunting, plants and imagined prehistoric customs. The pace can be slow because Auel spends considerable time on daily life and practical skills, so the series suits readers who want a detailed prehistoric setting as much as Ayla's personal story.
