Earthsea Cycle

A Wizard of Earthsea

Winner of the Boston Globe–Horn Book Award

Winner of the Lewis Carroll Shelf Award

One of TIME's 100 Best Fantasy Books of All Time

Ged was the greatest sorcerer in Earthsea, but in his youth he was the reckless Sparrowhawk. In his hunger for power and knowledge, he tampered with long held secrets and loosed a terrible shadow upon the world. This is the tumultuous tale of his testing, how he mastered the mighty words of power, tamed an ancient dragon, and crossed death's threshold to restore the balance.

"The magic of Earthsea is primal; the lessons of Earthsea remain as potent, as wise, and as necessary as anyone could dream."—Neil Gaiman

God historie, velskrevet. Desværre er lydkvaliteten ikke supergod, og det forstyrrer mig en del.

I see how this is a masterpiece of fantasy literature, but I personally didn't like the writing too much, I think, because it felt too nonchalant in the way it describes some very serious things?? in a very stable fairy tale-esque manner, that I usually like, but somehow I think it left me feeling odd with this one. still a very very good book, and I would recommend it to anyone, honestly
