To be honest, perhaps this book deserved a slightly better review. I wish there were more stars, and I could give it a 7/10 or something, but there are only 5. The downfall of this book is not anything particular. It simply lacks the magic of its predecessor, what I would consider to be one of the greatest books of all time. This book is a collection of short stories following the events of Watership Down. All of them are pretty good. But the fact that they are short stories, disconnected as a whole, doesn't allow for the mystery and excitement of the first book as it progressed. However, by far, I am glad that Adams decided to write a second book. It was worth it.

I loved to travel back to Watership Down and to learn how the characters faired. And the extension on the lore was great.

A great follow up to the original novel! I liked the continuation stories more than the mythologies and legends, but enjoyed the whole thing. I wish there were a whole other book on the Watership Down rabbits.
