City of Belmont - Ruth Faulkner Public Library

Taran is desperate for adventure. Being a lowly Assistant Pig-Keeper just isn't exciting. That is, until the magical pig, Hen Wen, disappears and Taran embarks on a death-defying quest to save her from the evil Horned King. His perilous adventures bring Taran many new friends: an irritable dwarf, an impulsive bard, a strange hairy beast and the hot-headed Princess Eilonwy. Together, they face many dangers, from the deathless Cauldron-Born warriors, dragons, witches and the terrifying Horned King himself. Taran learns much about his identity, but the mysterious Book of Three is yet to reveal his true destiny. "Lloyd Alexander is the true High King of fantasy." - Garth Nix "One of the most underrated fantasy series of all time." - Buzzfeed "A very fine fantasy adventure with a quite compelling magic of its own. It is rare that high excitement yields such quiet wisdom." - New York Times "I love these books...Long Live Prydain!" - Meg Rosoff
