Críticas
`Watership Down is stunning, compulsive reading.' * Sunday Times * `This beautifully written and intensely moving story is the work of an extraordinary imagination.' * Sunday Telegraph * 'A great book. A whole world is created, perfectly real in itself, yet constituting a deep incidental comment on human affairs.' * Guardian * 'A masterpiece. The best story about wild animals since The Wind in the Willows. Very funny, exciting, often moving.' * Evening Standard * `An impressive, immensely readable story, held together over 400 pages by a powerful imagination that soon forbids disbelief.' * New Statesman * `Quite marvelous... A powerful new vision of the great chain of being.' * New York Times Book Review * 'This new edition is quite spectacular.' * Bill Heine, BBC Radio Oxford * `A classic... A great book.' -- Los Angeles Times 'Exquisite... a treasured keepsake for those whose original version has become tattered, and a delightful introduction to a new generation.' * The View magazine * 'A gripping story of rebellion in a rabbit warren and the subsequent adventures of the rebels. Adams has a poetic eye and a gift for storytelling which will speak to readers of all ages for many years to come.' * Sunday Times * `Spellbinding...Marvelous...A taut tale of suspense, hot pursuit and derring-do.' * Chicago Tribune * `This lovely, lovely novel will join those classics which preserve the simpler joys... and there is the wonder of the English countryside, seen with the ground-level detail of a rabbit's eye and ear and nose, the scent and savour of short, sweet grass, the aromatic tiny wild plants, their names used like charms.' -- Monica Dickens
