Shardik by Richard Adams

2.75

Unfortunately I read this after its prequel Maia, thinking that reading them in historical sequence would be a good idea. Maia was so much larger in scope and character development and so much more engaging, that Shardik kind of pales in comparison. Shardik's fine, but I should have read it first. It's more of a warm-up for Maia.
