What this book is about
In the third book of the Prydain Chronicles, Princess Eilonwy is sent to the Isle of Mona for her education as a young woman. But the enchantress Achren covets the princess's magical bauble, and Taran must race to save her. Alexander's third Prydain novel deepens the characters and mythology while maintaining the series' accessible action-adventure tone. Light on darkness compared to later volumes.
