Tales of the Willows | William Horwood
NOT to be confused with The Wind in the Willows, by Kenneth Grahame, William Horwood wrote four more books to conclude the Great Classic. Even though, the original is by far the best.
The Willows at Christmas is a very good book, which was just like an add-on to The Wind in the Willows, so I think it was rather good, It basically just showed you christmas by the Riverbank, 7/10 ABR Rating: A
The Willows in Winter is also good, though not as good as the previous ones, as it lacks in the same jolly theme of the books, and though it is a good book, it just isn't up to the same standard as The Wind in the Willows, 6/10 ABR Rating: A
Toad Triumphant has got to be one of the worst books I have ever read, Toad turns into an insane criminal, which makes no sense, and doesn't really focus on the other characters. I only still have this book to complete the set 3/10 ABR Rating: A
The Willows and Beyond is just downright depressing, even though, it is a huge improvement on Toad Triumphant, this has very bizarre events, such as war, and imprisonment, alcohol, etc. this really puts the series in a strange, bad light. 5/10 ABR Rating: B
