Darker subject matter, nastier villains, stronger plot and character development and so on. Their struggles are intensified when they encounter three wicked enchantresses that seek to put a wrench in their plans.īetter than the first book in every way. Taran and his crew seek to weaken Arawn's forces by stealing his cauldron which he uses to empower his army. Taran and his newfound companions find themselves locked in a battle against the lord of the Land of Death Arawn and his legions of evil creatures.
The books are short and easy to read so I’m willing to go through them. I didn’t like Taran and his companions at first, but I think they have a lot of potential to grow on me in future installments. The pacing is messy and a lot of characters and plot points come off as underwhelming and anticlimactic, but all in all it’s a fun little fantasy adventure with nonstop action and a bit of slapstick humor. Meeting unlikely companions along the way including the heroic Prince Gwydion and the sassy Princess Eilonwy, Taran finds himself wrapped up in a battle against the Death Lord Arawn and his legion of evil beasts while searching for Hen Wen. When his pig goes missing amidst the scene of a great battle, Taran just might have to become a hero whether he's cut out for it or not.
He can barely manage to properly supervise his oracle pig Hen Wen. An ill-mannered farm boy named Taran dreams of being a hero, but he knows he's not cut out for that sort of life.
