Written aorund the archaeological discovery of the Kennewick Man---a Caucasoid male mummy dating over 9,000 years.

Pretty violent, cheesy sex scenes, but if you like this sort of thing...

This is a good book for people who like books which are set back in time, this book is based in a time near the end of the ice age when the great melt is in progress, water ways and sea levels are rising and this book teel s of the people and what is happening around them, great read for all those who like this genere, but not for me 6/10

Excellent Read! Set just at the time the ice age is coming to an end with the ice melting, filling rivers and seas to a level never seen before makes for an exciting story. Would recommend this book to those who enjoy reading about ancient times. As always, the Gears have the knack of storytelling!
