    <![CDATA[The original <em>Watership Down</em> is one of those wonderful works that appeals to readers both young and old. The story of a group of rabbits on an adventure into unfamiliar yards, farms, and fields made for an imaginative, captivating journey. This latest work follows the aftermath of the original's climactic ending and includes the rabbits' retelling of various myths associated with their rabbit-hood, plus some new twists and developments.  This is a captivating introduction to Adams's warren for first-time visitors, and those who loved the original Watership Down won't be disappointed. ]]>

    <![CDATA[The original <em>Watership Down</em> is one of those wonderful works that appeals to readers both young and old. The story of a group of rabbits on an adventure into unfamiliar yards, farms, and fields made for an imaginative, captivating journey. This latest work follows the aftermath of the original's climactic ending and includes the rabbits' retelling of various myths associated with their rabbit-hood, plus some new twists and developments.  This is a captivating introduction to Adams's warren for first-time visitors, and those who loved the original Watership Down won't be disappointed. ]]>

    <![CDATA[The original <em>Watership Down</em> is one of those wonderful works that appeals to readers both young and old. The story of a group of rabbits on an adventure into unfamiliar yards, farms, and fields made for an imaginative, captivating journey. This latest work follows the aftermath of the original's climactic ending and includes the rabbits' retelling of various myths associated with their rabbit-hood, plus some new twists and developments.  This is a captivating introduction to Adams's warren for first-time visitors, and those who loved the original Watership Down won't be disappointed. ]]>
