Tales from Watership Down "Watership Down", Hyzenthlay, a doe, rises to the position of Co-Chief Rabbit with her mate, Hazel. A reviewer for "The New York Times" wrote that while it was a "lighthearted companion piece" to "Watership Down", it was "a little disjointed as a stand-alone volume". The book was praised by another reviewer at Salon.com, who wrote: "The pure, unfamiliar feelings evoked in "The Story of the Three Cows" and in the gory "The Hole in the Sky" — just two of the stories here—persist for quite a while after you've finished reading them".
