	This is not a direct answer but may be interesting
nevertheless:
	There is a series of four fantasies by Evangeline
Walton, based on the Mabinogion and printed by (I think)
Ballantine paperbacks:
	The Isle of the Mighty
	The Song of Rhiannon
	... (can't remember)
	Prince of Annwn [sic].
I recommend them heartily.
	There is also a series of books, allegedly for
adolescents, by Lloyd Alexander, about "Taran the Wanderer." 
One of these, "The Black Cauldron," is the basis of an
animated cartoon feature soon to be released by Walt Disney
Studios; it is also based on Welsh stories including the
Mabinogion.

Regards,
Chris
