Press Reviews
- THE ENCYCLOPEDIA OF FANTASY
One of the most deeply influential of all 20th century fantasy texts
- PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Le Guin makes a triumphant return ... the publication of this collection is a major event in fantasy literature
- David Mitchell, author of Cloud Atlas
Reads like the retelling of a tale first told centuries ago, and whose twists and turns have been handed down through generations of storytellers. It is timeless. . . . Le Guin's words are magical. Drink this magic up. Drown in it. Dream it
- Margaret Atwood
A memorable exploration of the relationship between life and death. . . Ged, its hero, must face his shadow self before it devours him. Only then will he become whole. In the process, he must contend with the wisdom of dragons: ambiguous and not our wisdom, but wisdom nonetheless
