Publisher 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 enil as well as private--sometimes painful--revelations in the course of their journey.
Customer Reviews
Lloyd Alexander's masterpiece continues
James Langton delivers a marvelous and deserved performance narrating all the characters of the third book. Taran takes off to rescue beautiful Princess Eilonwy of the Royal House of Llyr after she is kidnapped by one who seeks to bend her magical powers to evil. Even Eilonwy plays the damsel in distress here. With his friends, Taran must save her, sacrificing all the way, fulfilling the role of the valiant hero that young adults, especially boys, need to have modeled for them.
