The story follows Kutnar, a young cave-boy, as he navigates the dangerous world of early humans and battles with cave beasts. Alongside his father Pic and their tribe, Kutnar sets out on a journey across the Pyrenees in search of a new home. Excerpt: «To some, I am known as Pic, the Weapon Maker; to others—but no matter. One name is as good as another. Yes, I am the Mammoth Man.» He folded his arms across his broad chest and even as he looked kindly upon his visitor, his eyes as much as said: «Can it be possible that mere curiosity has brought you here—to see me?»Gonch did not notice the look of those eyes; he was watching the man himself. Such evidence of physical health and strength, he had never before observed in a human being. «I can see now why they call him the Mammoth Man,» he thought to himself. «He is a giant among men as is the Hairy Elephant among beasts.» But all he said was: «I helped your boy. Perhaps for that you can look upon me as a friend.»
