Resumen del Editor

Tekla, son of an ancient shaman, loses Ka Li when she is torn from his life by a brutal tribe of Denisovans in a Late Pleistocene kidnapping.

Ka Li escapes but is unarmed and forced to flee across the Bering land bridge where she becomes hopelessly lost in the endless tracts of North America. Only Tekla cares enough to search for her over the years. As Ka Li survives fierce predators and scarce resources, she leaves behind a series of signal cairns to help Tekla find her.

Skipping forward 60,000 years, Helen Ryland, a mid-20th century archaeologist, unearths one of Ka Li’s surviving signal cairns and realizes she has found trace of people who populated the Americas even before the Clovis culture. Helen’s detective work tracking Ka Li’s timeless signals across the Alaskan wilderness now intertwines with Ka Li’s story. As Helen solves the puzzle of the signal cairns she finds universal fame and suffers devastating misfortune. In the end, Helen discovers that science in isolation cannot answer all of her questions for Tekla’s devotion to Ka Li had not died even though 600 centuries had passed.

Gift of Time was just an amazing read and this book while completely different is superb too.

Gift of Time is science fiction but such a unique story and so well written that I was excited for his next novel. I was surprised when his new novel wasn't science fiction at all. I'm not normally a fan of the genre of Time Pebbles which is historical fiction. This was so compelling from the start and so well written with characters that you cared about that I loved it. I can wait to see his next book because I will read / listen to anything that he had written

Clan of the cave bear revisited

Both the story and the narrator where humdrum. This book was a less entertaining version of 'Clan of the cave bear'.

Love and Archeology

An enthralling story spanning millennia if you’re into prehistory fiction you’ll enjoy this read. The ending is quite surprise.

Great story

Only downside was when the book ended. Great story, almost a time travel story but not. Didn’t expect a lot from reading some other reviews but was pleasantly surprised when the book exceeded my expectations. This will be one of my favorite audible books.

Loved it!

I loved the dual storyline format and found the characters relatable and engaging. If you want to read something that takes you on a journey then you’ve found it.

A very memorable story!

As I started my listen my mind wandered but shortly I could not stop listening! I sat the last 5 hrs. seeing it and being there.haven't been that taken away in many years! My family wonders what have been doing for so long. Their dinner is very late but part of me is still in that story! Thank you so very much!

Loved it

I wish the songs where in it, but otherwise it was amazing. Can't wait for your next book the first two are very well done.

Engaging Love Story

This book does a great job of skillfully weaving two story arcs across vast distances into one. I remained deeply interested in every character not realizing the author was leading me to a surprising yet very satisfying reunion. I'll look for more works from this highly entertaining writer.

Different!

Took a while to get into the story, but once I did it had me really compelled to finish quickly. Interesting ending!!!

A 60 Thousand Year Love Story

I couldn't stop once I had started. it's an archeological mystery: When did the first humans cross from Asia to North America? How dangerous was it? What were the living conditions back then? What is an actual archeological dig site like? But, most importantly, can a love be so strong that it could survive the gulf of 60 thousand years? Well, maybe it isn't possible, but I look across the room at my loved one and wish it were true.
