The People Eaters

More about the book

The second in the Earth Peoples series, following the widely-acclaimed Moctu and the Mammoth People, a story of love, life, and survival in Ice Age Europe. The People Eaters continues the saga, starting explosively as four separate tribes--two Neanderthal and two Homo sapien--are in great turmoil. While Moctu, Nuri, and Nindai of the Nerean tribe (Homo sapiens) are visiting their friends and picking up Moctu's hybrid baby, Elka, at the Krog (Neanderthal) shelter, the feared, warlike and cannibalistic Shiv (Neanderthals) attack. In the aftermath of the battle, the survivors of Moctu's band realize they owe their victory--and their lives--to the Krog, and that not all Neanderthals are enemies.
