This was <b>a magic of words, a magic of true speaking</b> - Neil Gaiman<p></p>The Earthsea trilogy . . . is <b>a memorable exploration</b> 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 - Margaret Atwood<p></p><i>A Wizard of Earthsea</i> 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. . . . <b>Le Guin's words are magical</b>. Drink this magic up. Drown in it. Dream it - David Mitchell, author of Cloud Atlas
