Terremer est un lieu magique et ensorcelé. Une mer immense recouverte d’un chapelet d’îles où les sorciers pratiquent la magie selon des règles très strictes. On y suit les aventures de Ged, un éleveur de chèvres qui, au terme d’une longue initiation, deviendra l’Archimage le plus puissant de Terremer, mais aussi celles de Tenar, haute prêtresse du temple des Innommables de l’île d'Atuan, de Tehanu, la fille-dragon, et de Aulne le sorcier qui refait chaque nuit le même rêve terrifiant. Autour de la grande histoire gravitent des contes qui enrichissent et explorent ce monde où enchanteurs et dragons se côtoient.

Cette édition intégrale et illustrée de Terremer réunit les romans qui ont fait le succès de ce cycle mythique et emblématique de l’œuvre d’Ursula K. Le Guin, ainsi que deux nouvelles inédites en France et une introduction de l’auteur écrite spécialement pour cette édition.

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.
