Summary: Moving
Review: A book that you will cherish all the days of your life. I'm 29 and I read the book first in Junior high. Today I saw the cover and once again I entered a world that is full of struggle, sorrow, friendship and hope. The memories are that vivid! A must read if you can read.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of my all-time favorites
Review: This book is truly amazing. The story is so moving and so completely real that I find it hard to believe that rabbits do not really live in the "Watership Down" world. I have read it an uncountable number of times, and I still get chills reading the last few chapters. My first copy is so ragged that if I read it again it would fall apart, so I lovingly retired it to an honored spot on my bookshelf and got another copy to continue reading it every year or so. Someday, I'm sure, I will have a shelfful of these old copies of Watership Down...I would and do recommend it to everyone. Do you know that I started reading it to two kids I babysat for who never did anything but watch cable and play videogames, and they were so mesmerized that from then on that was what they wanted me to do whenever I was over there? Truly a magical experience to read and to hear...

Summary: Worthwhile Reading
Review: This has to be, by far, one of my favorite books. When I was young, my family rented the video not knowing what to expect. Some of the animation at the beginning left me with nightmares for quite some time. But as I got older, I learned to appreciate the message of the film. From there, the only logical course of action was to check the book out of the local library. That book gave me hours of reading pleasure. The supurb writing style grabs hold of your imagination and takes it on a trip into the world of the rabbits. Every detail is there to keep the sense of reality and believeability alive. It's a must read for anyone who enjoys a good book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I LOVED THIS BOOK
Review: I read this book in high school I still have this same copy I WON'T part with this book and read it about once every 2 years just to stay in touch with the characters. I have bought the 20th edition just to have it I can't wait to read his new book tails from water ship dow

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This book is a must read for all people of all ages!
Review: Although I was first forced to read this book in Grade 7 English, it quickly grew on me as I read on. Although it is a book about rabbits, it's actualy much more deep than that. On the outside it comes across as a hefty children's book (rings in at about 300 pages)... Well you know the saying you can't judge a book by it's cover

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: YOU HAVE GOT TO READ THIS!!!!!!!!!!!
Review: I was at the bookstore and saw a rabbit on the cover of this book and had to buy it because I love rabbits. I didn't think it would be that great.I finnaly decided to start reading it and I could not put it down. I brought this book everywhere I went, I just had to see what happened next. I went through moments of laughter and tears. The rabbits became my friends. When I finished the book I just couldn't believe it was over, so I picked it up and read it all over again. It's now been two weeks since I've finished it the first time and I've read it 3 more times already! This is a great book and you have to read it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: READ THIS BOOK!
Review: I know that this is the latest in a long list of glowing reviews for this fabulous book, so I'll make this short. This book has it all. Not only is it a great, complex story with wonderfully developed characters, but it is exquisitely written. Not in a long time have I come across intellegent prose telling a fascinating and exciting story. It is my absolute favorite book!! I highly reccommend it for everyone

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Words can't describe the glory and power of Watership Down.
Review: I can't think of anything worthy to say about this book, except "read it"

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: ONE BAD BUNNY OF A BOOK (and it's not the only one!)
Review: This is a good book.

This is a great book.

Everyone knows this. Reviews are going to go down for this book forever--it's gonna be a major pain to download. No one really needs my two cents thrown in about it.

Ok, I'll make it short.

My dad introduced me to "Watership Down" when I was eight, and had already talked about it(I, in my weird kid fashion, got the idea it was the tumultous of rabbits who escaped the sinking of the Titanic. Ehh, go fig). What he did was buy me the video. Ballabing ballaboom, I was hooked. THE movie, for me. Friends had nightmares and were forever forbidden going over to my house cause I had watched it with them. I was a lonely kid--in love.

I read the book a few years later. Ballabing balla--well, you get the idea. It's a good way to go, though.

(PLUG. It's a rotten thing to advertise a book while reviewing another, but everyone knows "Watership Down". Not everyone knows William Horwood's "Duncton Wood", but "Watership Down" fans are that much more likely to dig him. When you're done here, check him out. One thing, though: you've seen all these "not for children" warnings about "Watership Down"--make that a definate for "Duncton Wood" and other Duncton books. END PLUG).

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the best adventure books I've ever read!
Review: Richard Adams' talent of writing really shows through this book. You really can become part of the novel which this book does. This book is one of the best adventure books that I have ever read and is right up there with my other favorite books such as The Lord Of The Rings. This is truely one of the books that I will keep on reading over and over again
