I suspect that the movie only covers this one book, since it
is a complete story in itself. I am a bit apprehensive about it,
though.  I also loved the books, and I would hate to see Disney do 
to them what it did to _Sword and the Stone_.  Lloyd Alexander 
treats his characters intelligently (all right I know T. H. White
didn't) and I hope Disney gives them the same courtesy.

(if they make Orwen, Orddu, and Orgoch into comic characters
I will KILL!)

   How about what Disney did to The Jungle Book and Winnie-the-Pooh?
Hanging would have been too good.
