Alright but not great. It seems preachy to me. Humans bad, Neanderthals good. We finally figured out that the hunter gatherer groups of the paleolithic era were heavy hunters and not the tree hugging, at one with nature, paleohippies of myth so now we have to find another group of "Good" humans to populate the earth. Who better than the Neanderthals especially when we can accuse ourselves of genocide at the same time? There were some interesting ideas and people in the story and I want to read more but I wouldn't call it a great story.
