Chronicles of Prydain Books in Order

Taran, an Assistant Pig-Keeper who dreams of heroism, goes after the missing pig Hen Wen and stumbles into a much larger fight. Along the way he meets allies, enemies, and the first real test of courage.

Taran and his companions take on a deadly mission into enemy territory to destroy the Black Cauldron, source of Arawn's undead warriors. It begins as a chance for glory and becomes a lesson in sacrifice.

Eilonwy is sent away for princess training on the Isle of Mona, but the trip turns dangerous when Queen Achren targets her magical gifts. Taran and his companions race to rescue her before the spell tightens.

Now a proven hero, Taran sets out with Gurgi to learn who he really is. His journey across Prydain becomes a search for birth, worth, and the hard truth that character matters more than rank.

Arawn has gained a terrible advantage, and Taran joins Gwydion and his friends for Prydain's last great war. The final book of the series brings battle, loss, and a choice that will shape Taran's whole life.
