i wanted to read the original, but this was the only copy the libary had.
think that would have been better.

i enjoyed the first half more.

It’s more of a companion to Watership Down than a proper sequel, but still pretty enjoyable. Glad to see the does are centered a bit more this go around. Though it is oddly retcon-y. There’s a lot more talk of man — even in the El-ahrairah stories — and there’s one story revolving around the instinctual hatred wild rabbits have of rabbits who smell of humans, which is weird, considering how many rabbits in the first book had been in the care of humans (the rabbits from Nuthanger farm, General Woundwort, Hazel-rah himself (and the explanation is not satisfactory)).

The beginning (really the whole first part with the El-arairah tales) was quite slow so it took me some time to like the book. The second and third parts were more to my liking. There was a red line to follow and especially the last half of the book, telling of further adventures of the Watership Down rabbits, was pleasing. Nice to read of them again.
