Query: NOT Auel's Earth's Children

I purchased this book due to numerous favorable comparisons of this series to Auel's Earth's Children series among the reviews - plus the favorable recommendation given to the book by Ms. Auel, herself. But this is not in the same league of Clan of the Cave Bear, or, even, Valley of the Horses. She Who Remembers lacks in the opulent detail of Auel's work - the fauna, flora, survival strategies including hunting, gathering and tool making, etc. This is a garden-variety adventure. The romances of Kwani, the protagonist, are shallow. The setting does not envelope the reader, transporting you back to a different place and time. Both the Earth's Children series and "She Who Remembers" are about extrordinary women who are set-apart from their own people and going on a journey of discovery. But there the similarities end. Auel's work soars, while Shuler's falls flat.
