I don’t think the Prydain Chronicles were any less interesting.Nikki, you should try reading them again,once you get into them its much more interesting =) P.S.I also saw the movie,but it was poorly done,especially Flewdur Flam! someone should do a better one.

I didn’t get far in the book because it wasn’t very interesting and I didn’t like Taran or Gwydion. Taran is much more likable in the movie. He was hot-headed there, too, but he learned to be more humble. I actually quit reading the book because of the way Gurgi was introduced. I think he jumped on and choked Taran or something, and that just took all the lovableness out of him. (He’s incredibly adorable in the movie.) In the movie, Elonwy was likable though she was a pretty typical princess-type. Sounds like that’s how she was in the book. But from what you say of the books overall, I’m glad I didn’t finish it. (I do recommend you try watching the movie again, though!) =D
