You might want to try Anne McCaffrey's Pern series Pern - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I started with the book Dragonquest and was taken by it, so much so that I now have them all, but here's a list of those books written.......... If you get into it, I hope you enjoy them as much as I do Anne McCaffrey's Pern Complete Bibliography

Try the Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan.
It's extremely addictive, and will keep you busy for at least a month if you decide to read the entire series. It took me only 4 days though, I went through books 1-11 non-stop, except for a couple of hours of sleep the first time I read it.

The Horse Goddess - Morgan Llywelyn

Tells the fictionalised story of Epona (historically the goddess of horses and one of the most widely worshipped European deities of the pre-christian era), who has her coming-of-age in the early Hallstatt Celtic era.

Refusing to accept the limitations of her life, she flees her home village and travels with Kazakh the Scythian. Whilst in his company, she demonstrates almost psychic abilities allowing her to tame and communicate with animals, particularly the horses of the Scythians (a tribe who are generally considered to have domesticated the horse some 5,000-8,000 years ago).

When her "magical" abilities become manifest, she is pursued by the shaman Kernunnos of her own tribe, who wishes to force her to return home as he sees the influence of the Scyths as a force for unwelcome change to traditional life and values.

Essentially, Kernunnos is obsessed with using Epona's powers to best benefit her own tribe. (The Kernunnos of mythology was the Celtic god of the hunt, and here, his fictional namesake follows Epona from the mountains of modern-day Austria to the endless steppes of modern-day Ukraine).

I enjoyed this book, if I was rating it, I'd probably give it 8 to 8.5 from 10... A fine tale of our ancient way of life and the old religion.........

You could also try "Clan of the Cave Bear" by Jean M Auel.
It's set in the stone age, and tells the story of an early human girl who comes to be adopted by a Neaderthal clan.
