Ursula K. Le Guin's Earthsea books are set across an archipelago where magic depends on knowing the true names of things. A Wizard of Earthsea follows the young mage Ged, but later books shift focus to characters such as Tenar and revisit them at different ages, so the series covers decades rather than one uninterrupted adventure. Publication order is the best way to see how the world and Le Guin's treatment of power, gender and magic develop; Tales from Earthsea adds shorter stories before The Other Wind brings several strands together. The writing is concise and often quiet, with journeys and choices carrying as much weight as battles. Read more Less
