A book for young and old alike. It is not so indepth that a young reader cannot get into it, nor so simple that an experienced reader will not enjoy it. The Chronicles of Prydain is a great series, I enjoyed them all.

if you like the JRR Tolkien books you will like these. Easier to read for younger readers not as heavy into the language or the morals. Started me on a love of fantasy that continues to this day.

Excellent series for young readers. It was my all time favorite as a child. It is along the lines of a Lord of the Rings fantasy, using lots of Welsh legend.

My boss told me that if I didn't read this book, she wouldn't speak to me. I read the book and enjoyed it immensely. I have the rest of the series too and I look forward to reading the entire series. Something I should have read long ago.
