The Book of Three
An assistant pig-keeper is swept into a war for Prydain in the opening book of Lloyd Alexander's beloved fantasy series.
Taran is an assistant pig-keeper who longs to be a hero, until a runaway oracular pig pulls him into the defence of Prydain against the Horned King. Drawing on Welsh mythology, Lloyd Alexander opens The Chronicles of Prydain with adventure, wit, and a surprisingly grown-up understanding of courage and disappointment. It has enchanted readers since 1964. Guillermo del Toro calls the series masterful, full of magic and chills, and simply says: try it.
