Description

|
|
|
(Winner of the 1990 Nebula Award for Best Novel) In this fourth book in the series, resuming the Earthsea saga after 17 years, the former priestess Tenar and the once-powerful wizard Ged have settled into a quiet, ordinary existence. While Tenar has embraced the simple pleasures of their life together, Ged mourns the loss of his powers, sacrificed long ago to restore balance to Earthsea. But their wisdom and their talents will soon be employed to help another in need—the physically, emotionally scarred child named Tehanu, whose own magical destiny has yet to be revealed. 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
