The Castle of Llyr

 

This was another cool entry into legendary The Chronicles of Prydain series by Lloyd Alexander. It was a series that I kept putting to the back burner when I was a kid. I'm 39 now and finally getting around to it. The characters are pretty likable, and you can really tell that the author was really inspired by mythology and used it well to enrich his series. In this book Eilonwy is set out to become a lady. A prince takes to her which bothers Taran, the assistant-pig keeper who realizes his love for her but doesn't reveal his feelings due to his station. Eilonwy gets kidnapped by Magg, and they are in danger once again by Achren. Taran goes on a quest to find her with Prince Ruhn and others. I've already started book 4.
