I love those too. Also all the Jean Aul books: The Clan of the Cave Bear, The Valley of Horses The Plains of Passage and the other one, can't remember it's name are good too, if you are interested in early historical fiction. She's done a lot of research on these, and had a lot of criticism about her heroin, but I am always thrilled to see just what Eylah's gonna come up with to invent next! catlady12@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
