Great book, but terrible audiobook

Publisher's Summary
The fifth book in the hugely successful Earth's Children series.
Ayla and Jondalar have reached home: the Ninth Cave of the Zelandonii, the old stone age settlement in the region known today as south-west France. Ayla has much to learn from the Zelandonii as well as much to teach them. Jondalar's family are initially wary of the beautiful young woman he has brought back, with her strange accent and her tame wolf and horses. She is delighted when she meets Zelandoni, the spiritual leader of her people, a fellow healer with whom she can share her medicinal skills.
After the rigours and dangers that have characterised her extraordinary life, Ayla yearns for peace and tranquillity; to be Jondalar's mate and to have children. But her unique spiritual gifts cannot be ignored, and even as she gives birth to their eagerly-awaited child, she is coming to accept that she has a greater role to play in the destiny of the Zelandonii.

laborious and lacking focus
there are so many good elements to Auel's writing. But the repeated references to paedophilia are hard to listen to. I think that Auel's publishers should have edited out these awful passages. What were they thinking? I cannot believe that the books have not been criticised for this. The idea of adults wanting to 'initiate' children into sexual "pleasures" might have been acceptable in some deviant circles in the 1960s, bit it is not acceptable today. such ideas should not be promulgated by the author, or publishers of these novels. Its a shame, because there are so many other, positive elements to these novels. In this novel, Auel begins clumsily and the characters are quite 'simpsonesque'. But she recovers and after the initial chapters, I was drawn back into the story. Roweena Cooper is a good narrator and manages to keep up the same level of interest despite the frequent, laborious passages where Auel has simply pasted her research notes into the novel. Such plumping is just uneccesary. careful and sensitive editing would have really helped Auel to tell her story more effectively. I wonder if she resisted editing? Such a shame. It is so rare to read an epic story with a female central character, and Auel's story could be so significant. But the paedophilia is hard to read. I would suggest that these books are either highly restricted or carefully edited before being reprinted.

Really well narrated for a start. If you can take yourself back to those days and get past the sex and basically the pornography, ended up fast forwarding that repetitiveness, then it is a good listen.

great continuing story line
continuing story of Ayla. sometimes repetitive of previous information to allow to be read as a stand alone I guess. unfortunately the narrators tone is not quite right, I am totally unable to listen to the frequent intimate moments between the characters as it's akin to having your mother read you an erotic story..... so I have to skip over these.

A gripping storyline into the way Neanderthal man may have lived
A very detailed story of Ayla and her acceptance into Johndelah’s group of people and the extensive rules and regulations she had to live by compared to her carefree life in the valley. She was happy to be a part of his life and to belong to people.
