Earthsea Ursula K. Le Guin's Earthsea cycle is one of the best-loved fantasies of our time, and the windswept world of Earthsea one of the greatest creations in all of fantasy literature. Frequently compared with J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle Earth and C. S. Lewis's Narnia, it is a treasure of wisdom, wonder, and literary wizardry. A Wizard of Earthsea Ged, the greatest sorcerer in all Earthsea, was called Sparrowhawk in his reckless youth. Hungry for power and knowledge, Sparrowhawk tampered with long-held secrets and loosed a terrible shadow upon the world. This is the 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.Le Guin, Ursula K. is the author of 'Wizard of Earthsea', published 1984 under ISBN 9780553262506 and ISBN 0553262505.
