High in the mountains of Transylvania, a cave sealed for thousands of years reveals grisly evidence for a fight to the death between two staving giants, a cave bear and a cave lion. Yet Alice discovers that for woolly rhinos and woolly mammoths, the Ice Age created a bounty. In the final installment, Alice sets off on her last voyage back to the Ice Age to discover why the giants of the age went extinct.
