      Often compared to Tolkien's Middle-earth or Lewis's Narnia, Ursula K. Le Guin's Earthsea is a stunning fantasy world that grabs quickly at our hearts, pulling us deeply into its imaginary realms. Four books (A Wizard of Earthsea, The Tombs of Atuan, The Farthest Shore, and Tehanu) tell the whole Earthsea cycle--a tale about a reckless, awkward boy named Sparrowhawk who becomes a wizard's apprentice after the wizard reveals Sparrowhawk's true name. The boy comes to realize that his fate may be far more important than he ever dreamed possible. Le Guin challenges her readers to think about the power of language, how in the act of naming the world around us we actually create that world. Teens, especially, will be inspired by the way Le Guin allows her characters to evolve and grow into their own powers.

      In this first book, A Wizard of Earthsea readers will witness Sparrowhawk's moving rite of passage--when he discovers his true name and becomes a young man. Great challenges await Sparrowhawk, including an almost deadly battle with a sinister creature, a monster that may be his own shadow.

      Book Description

      Ged was the greatest sorcerer in all Earthsea,  but once he was called Sparrowhawk, a reckless  youth, hungry for power and knowledge, who tampered  with long-held secrets and loosed a terrible shadow  upon the world. This is the tale of his testing,  how he mastered the mighty words of power, tamed an  ancient dragon, and crossed death's threshold to  restore the balance.

      This is a fun story for the younger crowd to enjoy (8 years and up). There is good character development in this story of a young boy growing up that sweeps you into the high adventure of wizards and magic and dragons that is sure to keep one riveted to this page turner.

      5 out of 5 stars My favorite book........2007-09-21

      This book is better than Harry Potter, it has a much more immersive story, with infinite possibilities, the characters are very solid, and clever, Ursula Paints the very image of Earthsea in your mind!

      4 out of 5 stars A Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula K. LeGuin.......2007-09-19

      If you call this a work of classic fantasy meaning it's like every other fantasy series with its magic and wizards and made-up worlds, you would be wrong. If you call this a work of classic fantasy meaning it's a great piece of work that set the foundation - like Lord of the Rings­ - for a lot of other series, you would be right.

      A Wizard of Earthsea is the first book in the Earthsea series and as all fantasy series should, it begins with a young wizard, Ged, who knows nothing of magic and the ways of being a wizard, other than his innate ability promising him a career as a great wizard. First he lives with a wise mage, and learns much about the simple things in life and magic and that everything has a cost. He soon discovers this when he performs a dark spell from a book he shouldn't have touched. A deadly shadow is summoned and then banished by his teacher, but Ged knows he will be facing it again.

      Ged then travels to the isle of Roke where he spends years becoming a master wizard. Upon his graduation, he faces the dark shadow once more but is unable to hold against it and flees in terror. As a renowned wizard now, he travels around the islands helping those less fortunate, battling dragons and other monsters. Then again he faces the shadow and barely survives, fleeing once more. He returns to his old master, unsure what to do. The wizened wizard tells him he must face the shadow and in turn face his greatest fear. And so Ged heads out into the deep sea where none have gone before and there faces the shadow and wages a great battle, finally defeating him. The book ends with Ged returning to land with his friend, now a true and accomplished wizard with the thousands of islands of Earthsea before him.

      What makes LeGuin's fantasy series more meaningful than most is that all the magic performed here comes at a cost, which the main character has to deal with throughout the book. It requires time and energy, afterwards one is tired; to create illusions is much easier than to actually change or create matter. Unlike the world of Harry Potter, here there are rules; not everyone can be a wizard. Along with this is the magical world of Earthsea with the many many islands of different peoples, a lot of which know little of each other. And for a wizard to travel from one island to another is a great adventure. The next book in the series is The Tombs of Atuan.

      4 out of 5 stars Just Great!.......2007-09-15

      Growing up with the Harry Potter series, I am so surprised that it took me so long to even hear of this writer and series, but I am glad I finally did. It is a wonderfully paced beginning to what proves to be a fantastic tale of Ged of Earthsea. It combines all the good stuff you would want in a fantasy; dragons, magic and dark shadows with the clean, rich and guiding (not pushing like some other series) writing that Leguin seems to be so good with. Just Great!

      4 out of 5 stars Not Free SF Reader.......2007-09-03

      Easily the best of this series of books. A Wizard of Earthsea is the story of a young boy named Ged, who becomes a wizard.

      Earthsea is a world of island archipelagoes, so a lot of boating and shipping goes on. Everything has a public name and a secret name, as knowing the names of things can give them power.

      Ged, or Sparrowhawk must master magic, fight demons, and work out what his role is in life.

        Amazon.com's Best of 2001

        The greatest fantasies of the 20th century are J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings and Ursula K. Le Guin's Earthsea Cycle. Regrettably, the Earthsea Cycle has not received the fame and sales of Tolkien's trilogy. Fortunately, new Earthsea books have appeared in the 21st century, and they are as powerful, beautiful, and imaginative as the first four novels. The fifth novel and sixth book of the Earthsea Cycle is The Other Wind.

        The sorcerer Alder has the power of mending, but it may have become the power of destruction: every night he dreams of the wall between the land of the living and the land of the dead, and the wall is being dismantled. If the wall is breached, the dead will invade Earthsea. Ged, once Archmage of Earthsea, sends Alder to King Lebannen. Now Alder and the king must join with a burned woman, a wizard of forbidden lore, and a being who is woman and dragon both, in an impossible quest to save Earthsea.

        Ursula K. Le Guin has received the National Book Award, five Nebula and five Hugo Awards, and the Newbery Award, among many other honors. The Other Wind lives up to expectations for one of the greatest fantasy cycles. --Cynthia Ward

        3 out of 5 stars Another overrated and dreary sequel to an otherwise wonderful trilogy.......2007-08-21

        Although I'm a big fan of the first three books of the Earthsea series, I think that this latest book (as was the case with Tehanu), was both overrated and underwhelming. It weighed in at just over 200 pages, which is somewhat anemic, and the book plods along at a slow pace ... and is unfortunately somewhat dreary and predictable.

        IMHO, this series should have remained the trilogy that the author first envisioned it as ... books 4 and 5 are just anemic tack-on stories that lack the magesty and wonder of the original three books. There's neither wonder, nor savor, in these latest offerings. I found book 5 to be somewhat more satisfying than book 4, but that's not saying much, because I didn't really care for book 4.

        Kudos to the authoress for typing up a philosophical loose end regarding the concept of death and afterlife in her world ... but she could, and should, have covered the same material by combining books 4&5, pulling a plot comb through it, and getting the combined book down to 300 pages.

        1 out of 5 stars Slow with an Incomprehensible ending.......2007-04-10

        Let me preface this with my Earthsea background. I read the first 3 books when I was young and loved them. Then did them again on audio a couple years ago and enjoyed the 1st and 3rd books but thought the 2nd one was slow. Then I read -Techanu- and thought it was more like an interlude with a plot added in at the end for good measure and seemed like an interlude. -Stories of Earthsea- was barely passable and now this -The Other Wind- left me with a final bad taste for a series I loved for a long time.

        It was nice to hang out with some old friends (Ged, Tenar etc...) but at some point toward the end it started this downward spiral into incomprehensibility. There would be section I just didn't get but I'd just move on hoping that it would make sense later. It never did. When it ended I had no idea what had happened. Was it just too simple? I do see a lot of reviewers saying that the ending was predictable. I don't even know who was still alive at the end. It seemed like a bunch of snippets of action that never got resolved. Was it some type of literary experiment?

        I'm not sure, but my final stance on Earthsea is: Read the first 3 books and pretend the others don't even exist.

        5 out of 5 stars Its hard to imagine a better book than this.......2007-03-06

        I first read the Earthsea books over a quarter century ago...and just recently re-read them all, so as to be able to appreciate Tales From Earthsea and The Other Wind. This last book and this series is on a par with the great works of Tolkien and CS Lewis. The story is told forcefully and yet gently...allowing to reader to discover the inner story at their own pace. Having taken over a week end finish the last 50 pages so that I could savour it, I am both joyful at the conclusion and sad that its done.

        5 out of 5 stars Fantasy at its best.......2006-06-18

        The Other Wind is the best fantasy novel I have read in many years, as good as anything LeGuin has written. It is both an enjoyable story and a profound meditation on life and death, and the writing is beautiful. Read it.

        4 out of 5 stars A Complex, Profound Scope Within A Simple Story.......2005-09-23

        How can one quite define or put one's finger on the essence of a Le Guin book - particularly an Earthsea one? I'll tell you one thing, I have not even read all of the stories and have even 'skipped' some according to the true, written sequence but I have come to realize that each book has a special quality unto itself WITHIN the greater, Earthsea context and that each stands on its own as a result. Le Guin does not 'pen stories' to fill out narrative time-lines; she writes each book for a purpose - something she wants to convey to her readers. When a writer does that, the story can become a part of the reader's experience of life. After 'Tombs of Atuan' - which gripped me for its intense HUMANITY in the midst of all its fantasy when I first read it 17 years ago - could we expect Le Guin to abandon Tenar just as she regained her true identity once more, whether Ged was the hero of Earthsea or not? Thus was born Tehanu.
        In 'The Other Wind', Le Guin sets out to fulfill the destinies of Tenar, Ged, Therru/Tehanu, and even Earthsea itself. A tall task? Yes. There WERE moments in the book that I felt Le Guin was 'cheating' or skimming, not wanting to get as involved in these deep matters as her own premise seemed to demand. We have a simple mender of pots who dreams of his recently deceased wife calling and reaching to him from beyond the low stone wall which separates the living realm from the dead one. The fabric of the Equilibrium between the two and between the realms of dragons and men is threatened and all Earthsea is in danger of oblivion unless it is restored. In a last desperate journey, King Lebannen travels with a motley coterie of disparate individuals (including Tenar, Tehanu, Alder the pot mender, the dragon-turned-woman Irian, and a mysterious Kargish princess) who represent all lands and creatures of Earthsea to Roke Island and the Immanent Grove in order to reach the 'stone wall' - and tear it down.
        And in the healing of Earthsea, Tenar lets go of her grown daughter (Tehanu) whom she can no longer protect, Lebannen bridges his lands with those of the Kargs through marrying the princess, Alder goes to forever join his wife, and Ged truly finds happiness with a returning Tenar.
        A special note on Tehanu, whose name-sake book you spend reading in its entirety in an attempt to fully grasp her true self and powers. THIS book sees this scarred, quiet girl grown into a young woman who finds herself at last - and the reader will be both nodding and fully satisfied with what she discovers about herself.
        The scope of this book could be argued to be too vast but having read it I find myself amazed that Le Guin could have dealt with it as well as she did and yet still have satisfied all of the 'human' sub-plots at the end. A true Earthsea fan will enjoy this book. A high action Fantasy junkie may have difficulty with it.

                      Book Description

                      A classic work of science fiction, this novel was one of the first to explore the world of the atom. The Girl in the Golden Atom is the story of a young chemist who finds a hidden atomic world within his mother’s wedding ring. Under a microscope, he sees within the ring a beautiful young woman sitting before a cave. Enchanted by her, he shrinks himself so that he can join her world.
                      Having worked for Thomas Alva Edison, Ray Cummings (1887–1957) was inspired by science’s possibilities and began to write science fiction. The Girl in the Golden Atom was enormously successful at its publication in 1923, and Cummings went on to write an equally successful sequel, The People of the Golden Atom. Both volumes are featured in this Bison Books edition, along with a new introduction by Jack Williamson.

                      3 out of 5 stars A Forgotten Gem.......2006-11-18

                      This is the first book I've purchased in the Bison Frontiers of Imagination series. The entire line aims to bring early science fiction stories, from the very beginning of the genre, to a mass audience. It is a worthy series and I plan on buying more in the future.

                      This book is actually two stories in one, both of which were originally published as serials in the pulp magazine All Story Weekly. The Girl in the Golden Atom was written in 1919 and its sequel, The People in the Golden Atom, in 1920.

                      Needless to say, the science is extremely dated. Luckily, like most pulp stories at the time, the science fiction element is kept to a minimum.

                      The plot is relatively simple. A man, identified only as the Chemist, discovers a microscopic world inside a golden ring. Soon, he becomes transfixed with a girl he observes there and determines to shrink himself down and find her. He does this by inventing two drugs, one pill to make him smaller and one pill to make him bigger. He then tells this plan to a group of friends, and asks them to safeguard the ring while he is away. Once he returns, he tells them all the story of his adventures inside the world of the ring. After his tale is over, he shrinks himself down again and returns to his love's side.

                      It is similar in structure to H.G. Well's The Time Machine. Indeed, this is purposefully done by Cummings, who is attempting to bridge the gap between the science romances of Wells and fantastic voyages of Verne.

                      The tale is very basic, but it has its charms. The descriptions of shrinking and growing, with the world falling away or rushing up, is very well done. The culture that lives inside the ring is only briefly touched upon. Some might see that as an unimaginative copout, but I think it gives it just the right touch of otherworldliness. Unfortunately, in a story like this, characterization is practically non-existent; it's really the adventure that keeps you reading.

                      The second story, The People in the Golden Atom, picks up right where the last one left off. The Chemist's friends from the previous novel gather together to read a letter he left behind. It tells them to come find him if has not returned within five years. To aid them, he leaves instructions on how to make his shrinking and growing pills.

                      The rest of the story follows their own adventures in the world of the ring and what happens when they find their wayward friend. All is not well, for a civil war is brewing and the Chemist is right in the middle of it.

                      I didn't like the second installment as much as the first. The story lagged in the middle. I think the problem is that it has too many protagonists. Also, it gets bogged down in descriptions of the world of the ring instead of moving the action forward. I also didn't like the resolution of the conflict. It didn't seem inevitable enough. Of course, being a serial, the story isn't supposed to be sophisticated.

                      Overall, it was an enjoyable read. I highly recommend this book to anyone who likes Jules Verne and H.G. Wells, the pulp stories of the 20s and 30s, or who is interested in learning more about the Golden Age of science fiction.

                                  5 out of 5 stars But...........2007-09-30

                                  This is a good book and it's right on the money as far as current events and the globalization thing. However, the author still suffers from satan syndrome. Basically blaming everything on the devil. the antichrists I see are all around us, the corrupt politicians, greedy businessmen and the doctors who will overmedicate you every chance they get. Wake up people.

                                  4 out of 5 stars A Worthwhile Read........2004-09-02

                                  This is a well thought out book - a very Long read though however. I could see that a lot of thought and research went into this book. It was a little hard to follow, and it's helpful to be informed on the goings on in the world to understand some of this book. Some of the information in the book wasn't more fully explained so that a general reader could understand. It's almost like two books were stuffed into one with the amount of information presented in Mr. Jeffrey's book. (I would have liked to see more information explaining certain things in more detail so I wouldn't have minded if this were presented as two books.) This is an important latter day book, and I would definitely recommend having this book in any religious study library.

                                  3 out of 5 stars one of the better.........2004-09-01

                                  5 out of 5 stars The Truth of Our Future Revealed.......2003-09-10

                                  If you never read prophecy teacher Grant R. Jeffrey's 'Messiah,' 'Apocalypse,' 'Prince of Darkness' and Armageddon,' you got to read 'Prince of Darkness' first. It's the most important book you'll ever read in this present day. It contains everything you need to know of the biblical prophecies that reveal the secret globalist conspiracy and the current events surrounding it. From the beginning struggle of Planet Earth. Satan has attempted to rule earth as a "god" and destroy what is good and the Holy people of God. Since the time of his fall, Satan's diabolical plan is to destroy the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ from the time of the Great Flood to Christ's crucifixion. That's why it's impossible to fully appreciate or understand Western culture and history without a tremendous role played by the Holy Scriptures.

                                  Amazingly, 'Prince of Darkness' was published in 1994 before some present day events happened. Since then most things mentioned in this book has already come to past! If you need to find answers about what's wrong with the world today-this is a must. Jeffrey explains about the ancient writings about the prince of darkness and his plot to destroy mankind. Jeffrey explains the meaning of the prophecies from Revelation, Daniel, Ezekiel, Zechariah and Isaiah and how they relate to our present time scenerio. Thirty-eight astonishing prophecies fullfilled sinced 1948 point to the imminent return of the Messiah-Jesus Christ. Research that reveals in depth and detail from bible prophecy to shocking truth behind today's headlines:

                                  * The rise of the Roman Empire is already implemented in the "1992 Plan" of the European Union another deception of the globalist plans to enslave people in the one world government. This is headed by the Tri-Lateral Commission.
                                  * The Council of Foreign Relations and the Tri-Lateral Commission key players in the move towards abandonment of national sovereignty that will lead to the AntiChrist and one world government. Along with this will come the economic and stock market crash ushered in by financial conspiracies.
                                  * Implementation in technological electronic surveillance where phone calls are monitored, and plans for a world currency is produced in the United States of America.
                                  * The rising threat of big government putting assaults on our privacy and personal freedom in ways you could never imagine by using every means possible in their sophisticated art of deception.
                                  * Rise of Anti-Semitism and Christian presecution. Propaganda forged by Russian secret police with an attempt of an Inquisition against Christian and Jews.
                                  * The rise of Russian imperialism and their deception to the world to disarmament fraud, and the secret agenda behind the PLO-Israeli peace agreement and Arab control and elimination of Israel.
                                  * Illegal Arab boycott of Israel since 1948 still being operated today in an effort to gain access to Arab oil. The unneccessary dependency of North America on cheap Middle East oil sparked the rise of Arab terrorism, hatred of Israel, Desert Storm and the present Iraqi War. All due to the wrong deliberate choices the governments made. (*also revealed in Jeffrey's 'War on Terror: Unfolding Bible Prophecy' on video).
                                  All of this and more was predicted before our present day. Most of the prophecies mentioned in this book have already come to past! This is an astounding book. If you need to find answers about the coming events of current issues this will help in your search for truth.

                                  5 out of 5 stars A great Novel!!!!!!.......2003-01-01

                                  I don't care what the other reviews have to say, this is perhaps the most in-depth and great novel depicted that of the End Times. It's great, and although the novel is almost 10 years old, almost all the events that were predicted came true over the last decade. This book is not full of crap, it's well written, and it's very ture. For Christains who are policitally motivated this is a great book, perhaps the best I read in years.
