Description

In the imaginary kingdom of Prydain, Princess Eilonwy must leave her 
friends to go to the Isle of Mona for training as a proper princess. 
Because Eilonwy has magical powers, she is sought by Achren, the most 
evil enchantress in the land. Shortly after her arrival on the Isle 
of Mona, something sinister and secret befalls her. Eilonwy's loyal 
friends Taran, the Assistant Pig-Keeper; Flewddur, the bard; and Prince 
Rhun, her intended husband realize her peril and set out on an exciting 
and terrifying mission to rescue her. They encounter great forces of 
evil as well as private sometimes painful—revelations in the course 
of their journey.

Steeped in mist and mystery and enhanced by an introduction read by 
the author himself, the third book in Alexander's beloved Pyrdain Chronicles 
takes devotees to the island of Mona. Here, Princess Eilonwy is to be 
groomed as a true princess, and here her life is in such grave danger 
that even an assistant pig-keeper, with the aid of his trusted companions, 
must draw on unknown strengths on her behalf. James Langton presents 
a memorable narration. The personalities of each character shine through, 
those we've met before the dignified and commanding Lord Gwydion, the 
flippant Princess Eilonwy, the hot-headed and daring Taran and those 
who are new the bumbling Prince Rhun, the fiercely conniving Chief 
Steward Magg, and the protective Llyan. Langton's pacing heightens the 
urgency of the quest as Achren matches wits with Taran's band. A.R.
