When global warming triggers the onset of a new Ice Age, tornadoes flatten Los Angeles, a tidal wave engulfs New York City and the entire Northern Hemisphere begns to freeze solid. Now, climatologist Jack Hall, his son Sam, and a small band of survivors must ride out the growing superstorm and stay alive in the face of an enemy more powerful and relentless than anything anyone has ever encountered: Mother Nature.

Explores glacial action and theories about the earth's Ice Ages. Presents some of the relics of the Ice Age that have been found, including ancient art and frozen animal remains.

Hypothesizes that the onset of the modern Ice Age in Africa caused climatic changes that forced human predecessors, the Australopithecus, out of the trees, allowing for the development of large-brained, land-dwelling Homo sapiens.

As Ayla and Jondalar travel across Ice Age Europe they encounter savage enemies and brave friends in their search for a place they can call home.

Oscar and Arabella, two woolly mammoths, try to cool off during a very hot summer.

Ayla and Jondalar meet the Mamutoi-the Mammoth Hunters--people like Ayla. Ayla finds herself torn between the wildly jealous Jondalar and the master carver Ranec.

Declared dead by the new leader of the ancient clan that has raised her, Ayla sets out to search for other humans like herself in prehistoric Europe.

Thousands of years in the future, all the northern hemisphere is buried under the ice and snow of a new Ice Age. At the southern end of a large landmass called Ifrik, two children of the Mahondi people, seven-year old Mara and her younger brother, Dann, are abducted from their home in the middle of the night. Raised as outsiders in a poor rural village, Mara and Dann learn to survive the hardships and dangers of a life threatened as much by an unforgiving...

Ayla, clearly a member of the Others, is raised by the Clan of the Cave Bear, a rival race of humanoid creatures living in prehistoric Europe.
