Story
For millennia, the Neanderthals dominated northern Europe's landscape, hunting, gathering and breeding. However, the arrival of the Cro-Magnon tribes presented the Neanderthals with a new and more powerful opponent—and their very survival was in jeopardy. The struggle for survival is reimagined in the fast-paced and fascinating historical novel The Last Neanderthal Clan. Charlie Boring and his extensive knowledge and passion for prehistoric civilization will transport listeners back to the cold climate of the Pleistocene period to witness the struggle for survival.

This wasn’t a story. It was a docudrama narrated by Ben Stein. Boring slow and a waste of money.

Halfway through the first book? Ugh
Reviewed: 01-01-24
I don’t understand why this series has such a high rating. Obviously the author has never read or applied the story grid to the book. None of this works. It’s confusing. The prologue should have established what starts the end of society, eg AI gone awry. No, we don’t get the first idea of the Teotwawki event until a third of the way through the first book. There are too many personal stories happening at once that really have nothing to do with the book. There is no need to establish all of the painfully predictable personal drama in its minutiae it’s all connected like some literary Frankenstein. The story works badly and should be put down by the villagers.
It’s insanely difficult to go on past the first 13 chapters. I’m ready to call it good now, but I wasted my money on it so I am going to finish listening to this disaster. Maybe it gets better, but I highly doubt it will.

There is an underlying darkness to this

I didn’t expect much going in. I figured just another second rate attempt at a Bigfoot book. So many are just trash, or some sort of gear or gun porn with the mystical whatever people.
It wasn’t. It was actually really good. I can see a bit of a loss of focus in a couple of later chapters but it worked. Not everything has to be ten pages long and drowning in minutia.
I’m not sure if the author intended it or not, but this really came across as a the guy who can’t catch a break in life novel who has some unfortunate events happen, but at the end I decided Toby was really a serial killer and Owen was a figment of his imagination, or not. It may have been the voices in his head. Either way it was pretty good. Well worth the money when 9/10 aren’t worth the time it takes to download them.

It’s well written, and has an out loud plot. It’s easily the most funny PA series I have heard. It was incredibly enjoyable, and for once, for the love of god for once well worth he money.

It’s typical John Saul. Love the way he weaves his stories. They are creepy at best.
