Lloyd Alexander created wonderful worlds in his time, and none so enjoyable as that of Prydain. Join Taran in his adventures as he finds his way, with Eilonwy the petulant princess, Gurgi the somewhat gluttinous creature and Fflewdur that tall tale telling bard, as they seek an oracular pig in hope of saving the land of Prydain from the evil Arawn. The author weaves an interesting and entertaining tapestry of intrigue and character growth. I have read the Chronicles of Prydain many times since my youth in the 1980s; most enjoyable and highly recommended.
