Synopsis

At nearly thirteen years of age, Sev knows he's ready to take his place as a respected hunter of the Bear Clan. But first, he must prove he is worthy - and what better way to show his bravery than to venture alone into the forbidden, echoing depths of the Cave of Lions? Sev will soon face the powerful array of human, animal, and spirit forces that stalk his world, and overcome the strongest challenger of them all - himself. Set amongst lush forests, rolling plains and captivating cave art, this richly illustrated tale brings paleolithic Europe to life.
