When Podkin, Pook and Paz escape from Munbury warren at the beginning of The Legend of Podkin One-Ear, the bard says ‘That terrible night will only be remembered by those poor little rabbits, and they will never speak of it again.’ What do you think happened? Could you write an extra chapter about their escape from the Gorm and their night in the frozen woods? Podkin is a young, lazy rabbit who should have been preparing to take over as chieftain from his dad. But does he care? No. He avoids his lessons and responsibilities, preferring to nap all the time. When the monstrous Gorm tear his burrow apart, his life suddenly changes. Podkin, his older sister Paz and Pook, his younger brother have to flee their home. Can he become the warrior his family needs him to be? Is there anywhere safe from the terrible Gorm? Dit verhaal houdt ergens het midden tussen Watershipdown en Lord of The Rings, en dan voor kinderen van een jaar of 10. Een avontuurlijk, fantasierijk verhaal vol humor, warmte en verlies. Dit boek heb ik blind uit de bibliotheek meegenomen voor mijn dochter. Een gokje. Maar ze vond het geweldig. Zo geweldig dat ik het van haar absoluut moest lezen. En dat heb ik dus gedaan.

Podkinova priča pustolovna je, dirljiva i predivno napisana avantura koja će osvojiti baš svakog čitatelja, bez obzira na dob. Njeni srčani i dragi likovi postat će prijatelji od kojih se nećete htjeti rastati, i čije ćete nevolje pratiti sa zebnjom u srcu, a pobjede pozdravljati s iskrenim veseljem. The story is about Podkin, the son of a tribal chief, who, with his older sister and young brother, flees from his castle as the bad Goroms invade. The Goroms kill his father and imprison his people, like they do with every rabbit borrow they invade. There are no people in this story, only rabbits who behave very humanly. Podkin, who has two ears at the beginning of the story, changes from a lazy young rabbit who cannot even be disturbed to want to learn to read and write into a brave warrior who takes a stand for his family. is defiantly i good book about the adventures of a rabbit (podkin) and is brother and sister I wouldn't say its one of my favourite books but its good. my age rating would be 7 to 10 Surprisingly, the thing I like most about this book is actually the way it’s told. It’s told by a travelling bard like in the good old days, someone who goes from village to village to tell his stories. It’s such a small, insignificant and seemingly unimportant detail but it definitely elevates the experience as a whole for me. It gives this story such coziness and warmth, like you’re not reading a book but rather being told a bedtime story by a cozy campfire under a star filled sky. And I love it when a story has the ability to make you forget that you’re reading a book.

It's jolly good fun . . . expect sequels to breed like . . . well, rabbits.' SFX on T he Legend of Podkin One-Ear The book is about Three Rabbits that travel through a wood/forest and one of the rabbits ear gets sliced off and that is why it is called The Legend of Podkin one-ear. I love this book and I think you will too if you read it. I think children 10+ if they are intarested . I really recommend it to people that like animal stories. Overall, I loved this book just because it was unique and surprised me in a positive way as I did not think I would read such a heartwarming book with what it looked like on the cover. When I first saw this book, I thought it was aimed at younger children because the main character is a rabbit. However it is not, it is set in a future where humans no longer exist and rabbits have evolved to be human-like. It is a story within a story as Podkin's tale is told by a storyteller and some chapters are about him. Despite this, it is fast paced and I couldn't put it down as I was desperate to see what happened next. The author used such great description that I easily imagined Podkin and the storyteller's world. The characters were believable and it was interesting to see them develop as their adventure progressed. For example, Podkin's challenge to become less self-centred and be a better rabbit. I liked all the characters, but my favourite character was Paz. She thought that everything shouldn't be just about men and she felt she had a lot more to offer than do chores and get married. I would recommend this book to everyone, it is awesome! Divno bi bilo sjesti uz vatru i upijati riječi kojima mudri bard pripovijeda legendu o Podkinu Jednouhom, baš kao što su tu čast imali radoznali i puni pitanja mladi zečevi. Kieran Larwood svojim pisanjem stvorio je tu intimnu i opojnu atmosferu, kao da slušamo barda, koja bi bila postojana duž cijelog romana, da oni isti maleni zečevi mjestimično nisu bili iznimno naporni s hrpetinom podpitanja.This book is great for ages over 9 or 10s because some of the language is difficult even for me. This book is definitely a 10/10 because it was very imaginative and has given me great ideas for being a writer.

Borba ili povijest, nije bilo bitno, Podkin je jednostavno volio – drijemati. Kakve koristi od svega toga kada obitavaš u sigurnosti svoga zečinjaka, pod okriljem svog moćnog oca i poglavice? Usred svog drijemanja Podkin nikako nije mogao znati da je i njegov zečinjak na meti Gvozdenih koji su na putu uništenja jedne davno i teškom mukom uspostavljene ravnoteže sile i moći. This story is a bit of Watershipdown mixed with Lord of The Rings, and then for children of about 10 years old. An adventurous, imaginative story full of humor, warmth and loss. I brought this book out of the library for my daughter. A gamble. But she loved it. So much that she made me read it. And so I did. Podkin kojeg upoznajemo na početku lijeni je zaigrani zečić koji malo mari za upravljanje zečinjakom kojeg bi trebao naslijediti. No, nakon bijega od Gvozdenih, Podkin će se promijeniti. Upadajući u razne nevolje, brinući za sestru Pazu i brata Pooka, upoznajući nove neprijatelje, ali stječući i pokojeg saveznika, Podkin će naučiti biti hrabar, nesebičan i neustrašiv - početak legendarnog ratnika koji tek ima postati. A negdje u tome svemu, otkrit će se i kako je i zašto postao Jednouhi. ;)Podkin Jednouhi legendarni je neustrašivi zec o čijim junaštvima i podvizima priče kruže i zdušno se prepričavaju u svih Pet kraljevstava. Legenda o Podkinu Jednouhom savršeno je štivo za male, ali i velike čitatelje koji su željni povratka u djetinjstvo, osjećaja očaranosti boravkom u jednom od divnih svjetova koje je Larwood ovom prilikom stvorio. Ova divno osmišljena i ispričana priča o vječitoj borbi dobra i zla – koja kao da pripada bardu koji je ispričao onoj mladoj znatiželjnoj skupini – izvrstan je materijal za raspirivanje mašte, buđenje i održavanje ljubavi prema čitanju i pričama, buđenje želje za otkrivanjem nečeg novog, ali naposljetku i poučna priča s lekcijama skrivenim između redaka. Bila je večer uoči Kupinova kada se jedan bard zaustavio potražiti sklonište u zečinjaku Trnjak, zauzvrat za priču. A priča koju je započeo pričati započela je također na večer uoči Kupinova, kada je blagdansku idilu jednog drugog zečinjaka prekinuo napad zlih Gvozdenih, uslijed kojeg je troje malih zečića moralo pobjeći kako bi sačuvalo živu glavu. Jedan od tih zečića bio je upravo legendarni Podkin. After capturing Charice, there is only one spirit left for Uki to find: Mortix, the most dangerous of all. With his friends Jori, Cole and Kree, Uki heads to Eisenfell – the greatest city in Hulstland – only to find that Mortix has taken control of Emperor Ash and is plotting to conquer the whole Five Realms with her terrifying army.

Ovo, ipak, nije jedna od tih priča. Ovo je priča o malenom zečiću koji tek treba postati legendom. Riječima barda iz čijih je usta priča izašla, ova je priča različita. Zato što je istinita. I found the book to be fairly fast-paced, atmospheric and poignant in scenes. I do especially like Podkin, and his character. Although, I feel like there wasn't much depth to his character and the reader would enjoy hearing more about him and his past. The theme is incredibly dark in parts, which made the story rather creepy. I loved this element though. I had a rabbit as a first pet, when I was about nine, and this book has made me see these creatures in a different light. It's definitely a book to stimulate the imagination.

Mish" and "Mash" are a great duo, they are twins who are dwarf rabbits and great gymnasts because this used to be their hobby, travelling around entertaining people with their amazing skills till they got captured....... Uki, a young rabbit cast out from his tribe, must take on an impossible quest to capture a series of evil spirits before they unleash havoc across the Five Realms. Illustration by David Wyatt Uki & The Swamp Spirit It feels like the protagonists come out on top maybe a little bit too easy in the end. Everything leading up to it is set up quite well though, so it all does make sense. Een verrassend leuk verhaal en zeker in Nederland zeldzaam in zijn soort. Echt de moeite waard. Hopelijk laat het vervolg van deze trilogie niet te lang op zich wachten. Zowel mijn dochter van 9 als mijn zoon van 6 kunnen zo lang echt niet wachten!
