Representaion In Favor Of Books Tales from Watership Down (Watership Down #2)

Watership Down was one of this century's best-loved works of imaginative literature. Now Richard Adams returns, to tell us what happened to the rabbits after their defeat of General Woundwort.

Tales From Watership Down begins with some of the great folk stories well known to all rabbits. Then we listen in as Dandelion, the rabbits' master storyteller, relates the thrilling adventures experienced by El-ahrairah, the mythical rabbit hero, and his stalwart, Rabscuttle, during the long journey home after their terrible encounter with the Black Rabbit of Inlé (as narrated in Watership Down). Finally, in the principal part of the book, we are told eight enchanting stories about the rabbits of the Down - Hazel, Fiver, Bigwig, and their companions - including the impact on the warren of the obsessive doe Flyairth, and the appointment of Hyzenthlay as a female Chief Rabbit and partner to Hazel.

All listeners - the millions who remember Watership Down with the deepest affection, and also those for whom this volume will be their first encounter with the rabbits - will find these nineteen tales utterly compelling, the fruit of Richard Adams spellbinding narrative power and ability to conjure up a world that is at the same time both real and unreal.

Notice Appertaining To Books Tales from Watership Down (Watership Down #2)

There seem to be a number of slightly-sour reviews on here, so I'll toss in my opinion. I loved this follow-up novel. It felt like an extension of "Watership Down." I absolutely loved the stories of El-ahrairah and Rabscuttle and enjoyed the creative adventures that the rabbits of the Downs went through. And I particularly enjoyed the political statements in this book. I think it's well worth reading if you loved the original novel. Who wouldn't want to spend a little more time with beloved

This was a story from my past and I loved the trip down memory land.The Rabbits of Watership Down was my favourite story grown up as child, Richard Adams was a master at telling children stories I also enjoyed the cartoon of this book.In this set of stories we get a different take on the older rabbits who have great stories to tell the younger rabbits.

It was reading the Watership Down books, that influenced my own writing style, to use non humans as the main characters in my books. Loved this story, it is interesting to read about events after the 1st book, really enjoyed it.

I recommend this book to people who have already read (and loved) the prequel, Watership Down, as I did. And even then, I can only recommend it with caveats.The title is misleading. Only the second half of the book is devoted to Tales from Watership Down -- several new stories about Hazel-rah, Fiver, Bigwig, and the others. The first part of the book is comprised of rabbit folklore, legends of El-Ahrairah, Prince of a Thousand Enemies. I skipped that first half.For WD fans, these tales should be

Heavily relies on the reader having read the novel Watership Down prior.The first two parts focus on the bunny folk-hero, El-Alhrairah and his adventures. The last part is a story sequence cum novella about events in and around Watership Down after the close of the novel.If you hankered for more rabbit adventures after the novel, this is the book for you. I liked the folk tales more than the new adventures of Watership Down. As I've no doubt mentioned before, language, history and legend are

I don't think that the timeless classic Watership Down could have continued any better; this sequel not only has a variety of legendary stories from the rabbit world, but it also fills in some gaps from the previous plot. If you're a fan of the first book, this is definitely a novel you'll want to read!
