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?

Slow-paced and enoyable read

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.

Very enjoyable but of its time

I did really enjoy reading this, and will almost certainly go on to read the other Earthsea books.

I came to Earthsea after reading several of Le Guin's Hainish cycle books and short stories, including some of the earliest ones like Rocannon's World. I can see similarities with the earliest Hainish cycle works, from around the same time - an emphasis on male characters, for example - which I am sure would have been handled differently by the same author had she written them later on. But there are still a lot of great ideas here, and it is far more open-minded than most fantasy literature of its era.
