En Ged és un nen que té una gran habilitat en les arts màgiques de Terramar, que s’articulen coneixent els noms veritables de les coses. El seu poder i ambició creixen, i el seu mestre decideix enviar-lo d’adolescent a l’escola de mags de Terramar. En Ged mostra grans habilitats a l’escola, però la vanitat i la rebel·lia no l’ajuden a adaptar-s’hi; és massa conscient que posseeix un gran poder. En un duel màgic per resoldre una discussió amb un company d’escola, en Ged allibera una criatura de la foscor que l’ataca i el persegueix. Creu que només pot fugir-ne i travessarà mitja Terramar per alliberar-se’n. Però de què fuig, en realitat?

Wonderful story

4 stars

A great story that straddled the line between literary and pop much better than the shoplit I've been listening to lately. I love a yarn about some guy going to some place and having misadventures along the way, I sure do. Better yet the themes of pride and the balance with nature and each other that comes from a devotion to living well. To living with mistakes as well as coming to terms with them as we try to make it right. IDK, I have a cold.

Rock solid

4 stars

Okay Ursula, I get it. Carl Jung blew my mind too. Jokes aside? genuinely very compelling fantasy. Wish I grew up reading this instead of Harry Potter.

Slow-paced and enoyable read

5 stars

I enjoyed reading this. With her thoughtful writing style, the author did a wizardly job in creating the perfect mood for this slow-paced, sombre, yet hopeful adventure. I could feel Ged's unease and determination as if I had been with him.

I was enchanted by the interesting concept of magic in Earthsea. And I also liked that we accompany Ged, of whom we know from the start that he will be a great wizard, from his very beginnings of his magical journey, when he was still inexperienced and short-tempered.

The cherry on top was the world building, which was a real charm! On Ged's voyage, I often could grasp the feeling of being on the open sea, a remote island or at the edge of the world.

En fantasy klassiker

4 stars

Introduserer leseren for et episk univers, der magi og makt ligger i å vite tings sanne navn. Vi følger en ung trollmann på en dannelsesreise fra barndom i fattige kår til uteksaminert trollmann. Selv om boken ble skrevet for barn og ungdom så er den aldri barnslig og passer vel så godt for voksende. Anbefales!

Hmm

No rating

Uuuhm. I enjoyed it, and for a "men doing things while talking in a complicated way" fantasy story this is very very good. Still... I asked myself why a few times.
