The High King is the culmination of The Chronicles of Prydain, where the forces of good and evil meet in an ultimate confrontation. Taran, the Assistant Pig-Keeper who wanted to be a hero, is at the center of this epic battle that will decide the fate of Prydain. With the enchanted black sword Dyrnwyn stolen, and Prince Gwydion dying, Prydain's hope hangs by a thread.
