Traducida a 35 idiomas, LOS HIJOS DE LA TIERRA es una de las series más conocidas y de más éxito de la historia del mundo editorial. Sus ventas suman por el momento más de 45 millones de ejemplares, 3 de ellos sólo en España y América Latina. Jean M. Auel combina sus brillantes dotes narrativas y unos personajes atractivos con una sorprendente recreación de la manera de vivir de hace miles de años, plasmando el terreno y convirtiendo los lugares, los deseos, las creencias, la creatividad y la vida cotidiana de los europeos de la Era Glacial en algo muy real para el lector de hoy en día.
Hace ya muchos años que Ayla, la niña cromañón, fue expulsada del Clan del Oso Cavernario y que inició su largo viaje por todo el continente europeo. Finalmente, en este libro, La tierra de las cuevas pintadas, se ha establecido en la cueva de donde procede su compañero Jondalar, con quien ha tenido una muy deseada hija llamada Jonayla. La joven lucha por encontrar un equilibrio entre sus nuevas obligaciones como madre y su preparación para convertirse en líder espiritual y en curandera. Durante su formación queda muy impactada al contemplar las maravillosas pinturas que se encuentran en algunas cuevas y le ayudan a sentirse especialmente cercana a la Madre Tierra.

Work Description
In The land of Painted Caves, Jean M. Auel brings the ice-age epic Earth's Children series to an extraordinary conclusion. Ayla, one of the most remarkable and beloved heroines in contemporary fiction, continues to explore the world and the people around her with curiosity, insight, and above all, courage.
As the story opens, Ayla, Jondalar, and their infant daughter, Jonayla are welcomed by the Zelandonii, but problems arise. They are faced with new challenges, not just the ordinary trials of sheer survival, but the complications posed by many groups of people who need to live and work together. The wisdom that Ayla gained from her struggles as an orphaned child, alone in a hostile environment, strengthens her as she moves closer to leadership of the Zelandonia.
Ayla and Jondalar's first priority is the care for their golden-haired child, Jonayla, and the well-being of their amazing animals, Wolf, Whinney, Racer, and Gray. The two participate in hunts to provide food, in travels to Summer Meetings for decision making, and in social activities. Whatever the obstacles, Ayla's inventive spirit produces new ways to lessen the difficulties of daily life: searching for wild edibles to make delicious meals, experimenting with techniques to ease the long journeys the Zelandoni must take, honing her skills as a healer and a leader. And then, there are the Sacred Caves, the caves that Ayla's mentor--the Donier, the First of the Zelandonia--takes her to see. These caves are filled with remarkable art--paintings of mammoths, lions, aurochs, rhinoceros, reindeer, bison, bear. The powerful, mystical aura within these caves sometimes overwhelms Ayla.
Ayla's final preparations for her initiation as a Zelandoni bring The Land of Painted Caves to a riveting climax. So much time apart from Jondalar has caused him to drift away from her. The rituals themselves bring her close to death. But through those rituals, Ayla gains A Gift of Knowledge so important that it will change the world.
Spellbinding drama, meticulous research, fascinating detail, and superb narrative skill combine to make The Land of Painted Caves a captivating, utterly believable creation of a civilization that resonates long after the reader has turned the last page, and serves as an astonishing end to this beloved saga.
