The Prydain Chronicles are one of my favorites, too!  I need to purchase • copies
of that series...  :)

The Science Fiction Book Club has (had?) a single volume of the Prydain
stories.  I think there were five in that volume - is that all of them?

Er...mostly.  The main series had five books (_The Book of Three_,
_The Black Cauldron_, _The Castle of Llyr_, _Taran Wanderer_,
_The High King_.)  However, there are other books & short stories set
in Prydain.  The only one I remember offhand is (I think) _Coll and his White
Pig_, but I think there are 2 or 3 others.

There are at least two more:  _The Foundling and Other Tales of Prydain_, and
the book about Fflewder Fflam.  I *still* haven't figured out the name of that
one yet...  :\

A search on Amazon reveals: The Truthful Harp.  Long out of print, unfortunately.
