Except why just A Wizard of Earthsea. I mean it was a trilogy...
There’s actually 6 books (book 5 is a short story collection that’s really useful before book 6). I just learned it wasn’t a trilogy this year and enjoyed the last few. Definitely a tonal shift though as she’s matured in her preferences.
Oh wow. I've got some reading to do! I read them in the late 1970s and there were only the three!
Enjoy the read! And the reread, they hold up great!
What do you mean there's 6 books?! It was the earthsea quartet when I read it like 25 years ago?!
Yeah! There’s been more released since then! They’re enjoyable. And I’d argue they retain the same audience from back then, discussing and contemplating more advanced ideas, not that the others didn’t.
