Title: Shardik is a waste of trees
Review: Having loved Watership Down, I grabbed feverishly at the first pages of the "bear" version only to be asleep in minutes. This book is almost unbelievably slow. It is about strange tribes on strange lands and a giant bear-god.I know that talking rabbits is not exactly reality, but this book should reside in the fantasy section of your local library alongside Terry Pratchett, Tolkien, or even in the bin. I am sure there are many out there who can find comparisons with our own world, with some extremely meaningful message to save mankind from everlasting doom etc etc, but I simply found it awful.It is no surprise that no-one has ever heard of Richard adam's follow up to Watership Down. Most people are probably too embarressed to mention the two books in the same sentence
