Commentary In Pursuance Of Books Taran Wanderer (The Chronicles of Prydain #4)

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.

Crit Of Books Taran Wanderer (The Chronicles of Prydain #4)

I liked this story the least of the Prydain Chronicles. It's important to the series because it shows Taran really understanding that his identity is based on his ability and accomplishments rather than on position; however, I missed Eilonwy who is barely in it and I found myself not becoming attached to the new characters as much. I didn't think there was enough dynamic. Mostly Taran is being mentored and there isn't as much tension as characters, interact with each other. The story reads more

Since I did not get to write reviews for the previous books of "The Chronicles of Prydain" I think I will have to explain a little bit of the story. This series of five books follows a young man called Taran who really wants to be a hero. He dreams of glory, honor, and adventure. But he realizes that heroism is not easy. He learns it the hard way through his adventures in the fantasy land of kings, queens, princes, and princesses called Prydain where he encounters things both wondrous and

I really enjoyed Taran Wanderer. Taran grew up quite a bit, which made him more fun to read as a protagonist. I really liked the characters that Alexander introduced. Some were nuanced; some were merely Good (like the people of the Free Commots), but still likeable and for once not bumbling, if still somewhat whimsical. This book follows Taran as he quests for his parentage. Alexander introduces us to some of his most nuanced, interesting characters yet, such as Craddoc; and Taran himself grows

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

I love these as audiobooks. Even though it took me several days to finish it, I loved the themes in this book the most. This series is so unique and much different than other fantasy novels I've encountered. Definitely recommend.

This is my favorite of the five books. Somewhat seasoned by his previous adventures, Taran sets off to find out who he is. Like so many, he thinks his parentage has something to do with it. He's offered some easy answers, but continues to look & in the process meets some interesting people & learns several crafts. He learns them well enough to learn the basics & that he doesn't have the calling to master them. Best of all, he learns that a simple bit of iron, cloth, or clay pot isn't

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...
