Tales from Earthsea

by Ursula K. Le Guin

Tales from Earthsea Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Five stories of Le Guin's world-renowned realm of Earthsea are collected in this volume that includes two classic stories, two original tales, and a brand-new novella, as well as new maps and a special essay on Earthsea's history, languages, literature, and magic.

Review:

"In her seventies, Le Guin is still at the height of her powers, a superb stylist with a knack for creating characters who are both wise and deeply humane." Publishers Weekly

Review:

"[T]his volume not only stands alone but also serves as an introduction to new readers. Strong work from a master storyteller; highly recommended." Library Journal

Review:

"Earthsea mavens must rejoice, and relative newcomers will profit from the Earthsea history and two new maps that round out the book." Booklist
