After reading the first 700 pages, I gave up any hopes of encountering a plot. Simply nothing of consequence happens in this book. Ayla encountered a few people who grumbled about her association with the clan, but these were easily dismissed by the rest of the people of her cave. If anything, Ayla was too easily accepted, leaving her no challenges to overcome. Even the detailing of stone-age life, which was a favourite aspect of the previous books, was lacking here. So, for most of the book, we just get passages from a terrible poem interspersed with Jondalar's proclamations of love.
