The Good Old Jaunt Thru the Library...

Still in the As!!! There are a lot of writers with the last name Adams. The current book, SHARDIK by Richard Adams was his second book after the sensation WATERSHIP DOWN. I thought it would be a good one, but woe is me...no. It started out fine and had a lot of potential of telling a good tale, but then Adams went off the track and introduced other characters who didn't lend much to the story and who got killed off. Lost interest...The big old bear who is the central theme of the book gets short shrift and so does the leading character...oh, well...next!
