Description

(Winner of the 1973 National Book Award for Children's Books) In this third book in the Earthsea series, the final part of the original trilogy, darkness threatens to overtake Earthsea; the world and its wizards are losing their magic. Aided by Enlad's young Prince Arren, the wizard Ged sets out to discover the source of this devastating loss. The treacherous journey will test the strength and will of both of these warriors, because to restore magic, they must venture to the farthest reaches of their world, and beyond even the realm of death. One of the most distinguished fantasy and science fiction writers of all time, Ursula K. Le Guin has won the Nebula Award, the Hugo Award, and the National Book Award. She is best known for her singular Earthsea fantasy series for readers 12 to adult, set on a world of many islands, where dragons and humans share a distant past, where magic keeps the world in balance and wizards can change their shape, and where one's true name is a secret that holds power. Originally a trilogy, begun in 1968 with A Wizard of Earthsea, the Earthsea cycle is a series of five novels—all of which have won literary honors—and a collection of tales. "The magic of Earthsea is primal; the lessons of Earthsea remain as potent, as wise, and as necessary as anyone could dream."—Neil Gaiman
