Description

|
|
Accompanied by Gurgi, Taran the Assistant Pig-Keeper goes questing for knowledge of his parentage in this fourth book in the series, hoping that his journey will ennoble him in the eyes of princess Eilonwy. He consults the three wily enchantresses of the Marshes of Morva, who tell him to seek the Mirror of Llunet for the answer, cryptically promising that "the finding takes no more than the looking." During his adventures he meets the shepherd Craddoc and comes to respect and admire the common people of Prydain. Since The Book of Three was first published in 1964, Lloyd Alexander's gripping and witty magical tales have captured the imaginations of readers 9 and up, earning the Newbery Medal and Honor as well as nominations for the National Book and American Book Awards. Inspired by Welsh mythology, the Chronicles of Prydain recount the many adventures of Taran the Assistant Pig-keeper and his heroic friends in their quest to save the land of Prydain from darkest evil.
