Book 6 - What I Wish For...

Well, just finished another internet search looking for any information about the release date for Book 6. Of course, there is nothing new! So, I thought I would make list of things I am hoping to see (or not see!) in Book 6. You know, other than just the book itself before I'm 80!

1. Character development! I get that Jean likes to research a lot, and likes to give us every detail of that research. But lets be honest - all we really want is to know what happens to the characters. So I wish for very few long descriptions of landscapes or vegetation or caves or animals and lots of information about what the people are doing!
2. Minimal recaps. Yes, I know. Ayla has discovered/invented pretty much every modern convenience imaginable. But can we please not spend half the book "remembering" how she domesticated animals? Can we not rehash the fire stone discovery? Or talk about the thread puller? And while we're at it, I don't need to be reminded of salient moments from previous books unless they directly impact what is just about to happen. Even then, keep it brief!
3. No more Mother's Song. How many times did it appear in The Shelters of Stone. Six? Eight? I don't really know, because even the first time I read the book I stopped reading the Mother's Song after the first time. In fact, I grew to hate the Mother's Song, and I don't even read it once anymore when I re-read the book.

Well, those are my first three, and main wishes. Another time we'll talk about things I'd love to see in the storyline!

What are your wishes for Book 6?
