slow-paced

A fascinating story-line. I wanted more when it ended. I am craving accurate information about the Neanderthal. I want to see photos of real dig sites and know about the overlap between us and them. What is a good read to follow this?

I liked it. I did have to force myself to finish it though as it dragged on toward the end.
