A Wizard of Earthsea
Earthsea Cycle #1
Ursula Le Guin
Fantasy
5 Stars
No matter how many times I read this story, it is just as good, if not better each time I read it.
Ged’s coming of age story does not get stale, lose its edge of suspense, or in any way diminish with each re-read.
It is just as interesting to me as a mid 30’s man as I found it when I first read it in my early teens.
Cannot recommend this book [and the trilogy] enough for anyone who loves fantasy…
