Taran is an Assistant Pig-Keeper no longer; he has become a hero. Now he dreams of winning the hand of the Princess Eilonwy. Eager to find his origins, Taran sets off with the faithful Gurgi on a quest across the marvelous land of Prydain. Their journey takes them to the three witches in the Marshes of Morva, through the many realms of Prydain, and finally to the mystical Mirror of Llunet, which may hold a truth about Taran's identity that he cannot bear to face. In the course of his travels, Taran will learn much about his world and the good and bad people in it, but will also discover much about himself.

After many hard lessons, Taran learns the secret of the Mirror Llunet and of the past--and finds not an ending but a beginning.

This was far better than the last few Prydain books, even though towards the end the chapters at times felt like self-contained short stories. It won't be long before I read the concluding book again...

My favorite of the Prydain books! It really added a lot of depth to Taran (without sacrificing my favorite character in Gurgi). It read more like a collection of short stories versus an epic one. I greatly enjoyed this. The stakes were the lowest they possibly could be. Not every day has to be filled with life and death choices (though a few still showed up on the pages), and definitely not at a scale that will define the fate of the world/kingdom/country/universe/etc. I'm so excited to start

Of the five books, this affected me most. I felt so much for Taran, his loss, his loneliness, his sufferings. I love the fullness of his characterization.

My personal favorite in The Chronicles of Prydain is, no contest, Taran Wanderer. It doesnt have a whole lot of swashbuckling action and gallantry, but as I've reread the books through the years, I've come to see it as the key to the series, and what lifts it into the realm of classics. The core of this series has always been Tarans growth from a somewhat foolish and hapless boy into a man, and with each consecutive book he learns a little more about himself and the world around him. This is the

This is the moment where Taran, and this series, grows up. Taran Wanderer is a wondrous book, and I enjoyed it immensely. I can understand, however, why children (or adults) who adored the first three books in the Prydain series may be thrown off by it, as it doesn't really follow the same path as the others. As the title suggests, Taran (and subsequently the reader) are wandering for the majority of the story. This is also by far the darkest book yet in the series.After the events in The Castle

The fourth part of the series is, as the author writes in his foreword, the most heroic of all. In this, our beloved pig keeper begins a journey to discover his true origin so that he can stand next to his beloved as an equal. In this journey, we follow the classic pattern of fairy tales and mythological circles, with the hero encountering difficulties, obstacles, dangerous people and overcoming them with his power and wit. Of course, on this trip he meets people who give him valuable advice and
