Great listen!

When you hate characters you know it is well written! Enjoyed this third installment to the Prydain Chronicles. Loved the character development of both the main characters as well as the secondary characters. The story flowed nicely and kept the reader invested till the end, not while never-ending cliffhangers but with a compelling story and plot.

memories

it's a great stroll down memory lane. I have loved this series since grade school.

So Good Too Short!

Leaves you wanting so much more. of adventures in Prydain! Such good fantasy with real values and honest emotion!

Much better than I remembered

I have been a huge fan of THE PRYDAIN CHRONICLES for most of my life, but dismissed this book as fluff, not up to the standard of the rest. This time I realized it is a subtle shift from adolescent adventure to accepting adult responsibilities, just as it is for our characters. And I LOVE that.

Excellent, like all the books in this series

I have loved all the books in this series, including this one. I look forward to continuing the series.

Excellent, Start to Finish!

Wonderful Narrator James Langton brings to life a saga long deserving a proper theatrical treatment... oh well, at least we have this! I'm eagerly gobbling up this series, and can't wait to hear what Mr.Alexander has in store for Taran and co....

The best in the Prydain series

This is my favorite book in the series and is fabulously read by James Langton, so visual. great characters!

We love it

Two thumbs up from a seven year old who loves cats and eilonwy- we want more

I love the adventures of Prydain

I've been reading these stories since I was a kid and I love visiting the world of Prydain! My reasoning for the 4 Star review was because the chapters weren't recorded by the actual chapters of the book and it was hard to know how long to set my sleep timer to the actual end of a chapter not knowing how long that chapter actually was. If I was busy doing something else while listening I had to stop what I was doing and rewind back to the beginning of the chapter that started to play instead of being able to just set the sleep timer to the end of the chapter.

One of the BEST! So great

One of the best series ever written! Thank you Lloyd Alexander.
I also love the reader
