A wonderful, though short, collection of short stories from Lloyd Alexander's fantastical world of Prydain. Each of these stories is set in times previous to the "Chronicles of Prydain," and answers questions that the books leave. Whether you wish to know the origins of Dallben or the history of the sword Dyrnwyn, if you're a newcomer to Prydain or an old friend, I highly recommend this book.
