Resumen del Editor

The Sword of Dyrnwyn, the most powerful weapon in the kingdom of Prydain, has fallen into the hands of Arawn-Death-Lord. Now Taran, Assistant Pig-Keeper, and Price Gwydion lead an army against the powerful lord. After a winter expedition filled with danger, Taran's forces arrive at Mount Dragon, evil's stronghold. There Tara is forced to make the most crucial decisions of his life as he confronts the evil enchantress Achren and the diabolical Arawn.

A perfect ending to the series!

It is sad to say goodbye to Taran, Eilowany, Gurgi, and the rest of the companions. But it was a very happy ending to their story and the beginning of their next journeys.

The “Harry Potter” of my childhood

I adored these books as a child, and shared them with my children who loved them as well. A simpler and possibly more accessible story than the amazing HP series for younger readers, the Chronicles of Prydain are still as rich and wonderful as they were 50 years ago. I loved hearing them read to me in this series, as much as I loved hearing my dear 4th grade teacher read them to my class so many years ago.

Best in the series!

This is by far the best in the series, although, it's hard to say that to some degree because they all wonderful. This is, in my opinion, the best fantasy series ever written. This is my first time listening to it instead of reading it, and I have to say the narration is wonderful, and all of the characters just come to life with him. I thoroughly enjoyed the series and this is the best way to end it!

Destiny

Great ending for Taran and his companions. Taran's arc and growth come to a perfect end.

High Fantasy Epic of the Highest Order

I'm rating this one up there with Lord of the Rings, Wheel of time , Companions of the Hall, etc. Great literary art from a master storyteller and the Narrator was par excellence . An overall thoroughly enjoyable romp through the wondrous realm of Prydain. Gobbled this up with many crunchings and munchings! Yes! Koindly Mastah

The deeply satisfying climax of Prydain Chronicles

The story is a classic. I've loved it since I was a child. The production does it justice. Highly recommended.

SO GOOD!

This series was fantastic! I wasn't sure what to expect but I loved it! It is an older type of fantasy, where war and strife isn't what is to be idealized but a peaceful life and the battles and toils the characters go through must be endured to protect the simple things.
I definitely was sobbing during this last book.

Among Best Books EVER! H. Potter fans will love!

I highly recommend all the Chronicles of Prydain and especially this 5th and final book om the series, The High King. The High King won the Newberry Award for Children's Literature and is an amazing book full of great adventures, well drawn lovable characters, and profound life lessons. Lloyd Alexander creates the world of Prydain loosely based on Welsh mythology. This is the 5th book in the Chronicles of Prydain, and I recommend reading them in order. The last chapter is truly amazing. Taran learns that everyone is a hero who strives more for others than for himself! Excellent! For those who have listened to Harry Potter, James Langton does as good a job as Jim Dale. It was wonderful to listen to him bring Taran and his friends to life. This is a book written for YA readers (middle school and late elementary) but high schoolers and adults will take much from it also. Do yourself a favor--read these books and give them as gifts to all young people you know.
