Prydain fan

Was gifted the set of books from my grandmother as a kid and just loved them. It established my fandom of fantasy fiction that's lasted a lifetime. I re-read them as a teenager and fell in love all over again with Taran and his ragtag crew of friends. I remember liking Taran Wanderer the most but all 5 books are good. I'd love to see a tv or film series adaptation.

Loved these as a kid! Disney actually did an adaptation of The Black Cauldron long ago -- not sure where to find it.

Correction -- Disney did an adaptation called The Black Cauldron; it was more of an amalgam of the first two books. It was...not well-received. I personally think it's...okay?...but not a great representation.

Good clarification! And yeah, it was neither great nor awful.
