The Castle of Llyr by Lloyd Alexander

5.0

I think this is my favorite so far of The Chronicles of Prydain. It has it all! Giant cat? Derpy prince? Comedy at Taran's expense? Gurgi not being as annoying (or maybe I'm just getting used to him)? Fflewddur breaking very few harpstrings? Eilonwy being smart and witty despite it going right over Taran's head? Did I mention a giant cat? Fflewddur's rivalry and hilarious battle with the Steward Magg? The giant cat is named Llyan and she is the best. Giant. Cat.
