Recommended Reading: The High King

The High King is the 5th and last book in the Chronicles of Prydain series. It was my favorite of the series. The story has lots of twists and turns and had me completely engaged. It included a lot of battles and preparations for war, but unlike so many similar stories the writing was clean and straight forward enough for a child. I think this book and the series in general would be great for kids as young as 7 or 8.
