The Mammoth Stone by Margaret Allan

description

The people of the mammoth have wandered the world for thousands of years, surviving starvation, plague, and predators, fleeing the ever encroaching ice, following the mammoth herds for life and sustenance. Finally they come to a place of prophecy where twin children are born to the people of the Mammoth; Wolf, who would grow to be a mighty warrior, and Maya, whom some call an Evil Spirit because she has the mark of the Great Mother-one eye of blue and one of green. This is the sign of She who is born to wield the Mammoth Stone, and ancient and mystical talisman bearing both a promise and a curse. And thus great event and remarkable people are set in motion as Maya, the once outcast child, learns the Stone's powers and secrets...as she chooses a brave and passionate mate and goes with him into the endless plains....and as she embarks on a great adventure of terrible beauty, leading her people through the timeless wonders and perils of thrilling new world.
