Book Reviews of The High King (The Chronicles of Prydain)
Book Review: Childhood favourite rediscovered
Summary: 5 Stars
I first read this book as a child. It was "that book", a discovery, that I read and unexpectedly found myself drawn into a world that I had never been able to find before - outside of the Narnia books. The simple yet complex characters have not been forgotten in the decades since this book first captured my imagination.This is an epic tale where Taran, our favourite assisstant pig-keeper, Gwydion, Eilonwy and co. must save their world from Arawn Cauldron-born who has the powerful sword of Dyrnwyn This action-packed fantasy is the last in the series about Taran and his friends. It is a fitting, glorious end to the series. Couldn't wait to turn each page, only problem was I ran out of pages to turn. The ending is incredible.
If you know a child who loves Narnia and Harry Potter you will win their hearts forever with this book and The Chronicles of Prydain. Definitely a must read for the young and young at heart!
