Podkin One-Ear

A fantastic new adventure tale, about a legandary and fearsome rabbit who became the greatest warrior the world has ever known.

A thick white blanket covers the wide slopes of the band of hills known as the Razorback Downs... Podkin One-Ear is a legend: a fearsome warrior rabbit whose reputation for cunning and triumph in battle has travelled the ages. But how did he become such a mighty fighter? The answer may surprise you...

When a travelling bard arrives at Thornwood Warren on Midwinter night, he is warmly welcomed. In return for food and lodging, he settles down to tell the tale of Podkin One-Ear - and soon the rabbits are enthralled to hear the story of how one lost little rabbit overcame the cruellest enemy imaginable, and became the greatest warrior their land has ever known.
