Series: Inspector Banks #2 Not a bad second in the series (especially since I apparently one-starred the first book), but I ended up having to relisten to the last chapter to figure out how everything worked.

Series: Inspector Banks #3 I'm reading this series out of order (I read book 3 before book 2) because of library availability and because I was looking for something written by a man that I could finish relatively quickly for the Snakes & Ladders game. I have to say that I really enjoyed the nar...

The one question that's plagued Taran all his life is just who is he? Who is his family? Is there any chance at all that his family is some sort of nobility? This last question has taken on a new level of importance to him as he has realized that he's in love with a princess and can't do anything ab...

Taran is tasked with escorting Princess Eilonwy to the Isle of Mona, where she'll be taken in by distant relatives -- the king and queen, who will help her learn how to be a proper young lady (an idea she finds ridiculous). They sail there on a ship "captained" by the island's Prince Rhun. Once th...

Why Disney chose this one to make a movie out of, I'll never know (and have never seen). Prince Gwydion has called a council at Cair Dalben -- bringing warriors, royalt...
