Taran, Assistant Pig-Keeper of Prydain, faces even more dangers as he seeks the magical Black Cauldron, the chief implement of the evil powers of Arawn, lord of the Land of Death.
An excellent sequel to the first in this series. It retains the charm and spirit of the first novel, while introducing new characters and darkening the tone of the series.

I liked this even more than The Book of Three. Taran sees a larger, stranger world that's also more complex. Wonderful stuff!
