Summary: Classic animal action thriller
Review: One of those books most people in England or the United States must have heard off in school. For me it was coincidence. As a child I once saw a cartoon called Watership Down. I remember there was music of Simon and Garfunkel in it. It probably ended with "Based on a story by Adams". Maybe that I made a mental note that day to read the book one day. I don't know. About 15 years later or so I finally bought the book and read it. Not bad, not bad at all. I thought it would be something like Duncton Wood, a book I read several years ago. And there are definitely similarities. Both books tell a story from the perspective of the animals. In Duncton Wood it were moles, here it was rabbits. I liked Watership Down better. It got me more involved and Duncton Wood was too long I think. At a certain point I got bored by it. Not Watership Down it entertained me till the end. I think the writer wrote one more book about the rabbits of Watership Down, but I'll pass on that one. Don't think a sequel was necessary. For me the story is finished.

Summary: Watership Down
Review: I like this book very much because it was filled with action, drama & comedy. For example, it has 12 rabbits that have to travel on a dangerous journey to escape danger and start a new warren (home). The characters are a mix: strong, smart, weak...
One knew how to lead and by working together they all got to a place on top of the hill where they were safe and no one got hurt....

Summary: Classic book loved by all who can see it for what it is
Review: This book is amazing for most age, but as the negative reviews show, it's not for everyone. It's a long book. You need to have some sort of attention span to read it. Which is why so many high school students dislike it when forced to read it. It's "about" rabbits. They talk. If you can't get over that, skip this book. There are made up words too. Oh the horror. It is in part a fantasy. If that genre repulses you, skip this book. That's part of the reason so many people loved this book as young kids. If you know a child who's not too easily scared (because some of the book is dark) they'll love it for the pure fantasy elements of it, though they might need it read to them if they're really young. It's great on so many other levels too. I first read it the summer before freshmen year (yes, it was required for school). And each time I've read it since I have gotten more out of it. It's a moving story, a fanciful adventure, an allegorical tale, and more, all in one.

Summary: Watership Down
Review: If you are of any age and hate to read you must read this book a soon as possible. Before I read this book I hated to read because I thought it was boring a dull, but after I read Watership Down I found out what an exciting world some authors can bring you into.
I mean I at first got this book for summer reading (for school) because my grandmother said it was a great book, but she did not tell me it was 400 and somethin' pages. So, I said Britt you have to read a book it might as well be a 400 and somethin' page book.
As soon as I started reading I was automatically I was pulled into this wonderous and magical world of rabbits. I mean Richard Adams makes you feel you are one of Hazel's mighty crew, and because of that I plowed through this book in three weeks, which is incredibly fast for me. I recomend this book to anyone of any age who does not like to read or loves to read. Summary: Fiver, Hazel's little brother, has this horrible preminition of something horrible hapening to their warren (group of holes or a rabbit comminity). Hazel tells the cheif rabbit, he does not believe them, and will not leave thier warren. So, Fiver convences Hazel to get a small group of rabbits together and leave the warren. You will have to read the book to find out all of the adventures they go through looking for a new warren.

Summary: My Favorite Novel Ever...
Review: Simply put, 'Watership Down' is my favorite novel of all time. I have loved it since I was a small child and continue to revisit it every couple of years. Each rereading of the tale of these amazing and 'human' bunnies never fails to move and thrill me. If you've never read this classic, do yourself a favor and pick up a copy. "Talking rabbits" or not, these are some of the most memorable characters in fiction.

Summary: Terrific Story
Review: This is a charming story for anyone 12 and older. Adams does a superlative job developing the character of each rabbit and telling a believable and engrosing tale of how they endured hardship in their quest for a new home. This book belongs in the Hall of Fame - along with the Tolkien Trilogy and the C.S. Lewis Narnia series. If you loved those, you'll love this one. The movie was very bad - but the book is very, very good.

Summary: Not much to say.
Review: I have read through it a few times but...maybe it's just way over my head. It just didn't click with me at all, I didn't feel anything coming from the words, they were just...there. It was quite dull and complicated and really confusing. I also read what seemed to be a ghost story by this same author, but it also didn't click with me, maybe it's his writing style? Ahh well. I'll give this book another chance, it has been a while since i've read it. I hope I haven't insulted anyone, this was just my experience with this particular book.
