Summary: A fascinating and wonderful book - intelligent ,perceptive
Review: This is a really great book - ostensibly written for children, it is far more mature and intelligent than most of the other books I've read.In the realms of Fantasy, Le guin is even better than Tolkien.

Summary: Owe my finicky taste to this book
Review: This was my introduction to true literature. Never mind that it's fantasy, it's mostly just excellent writing. LeGuin is an amazing woman.

Summary: What I love about Fantasy
Review: This book was one of the first Fantasy books I'd read, and it (along with Tolkien's series) is responsible for a life-long obsession with finding books of equal stature in this genre. I've read far too much trash in Fantasy, and when the dredge begins to sour my appetite, I go back and reread The Wizard of Earthsea. It's a classic for a very good reason.

Summary: I like it
Review: This was a very enjoyable book. Ged was very mystical. It was slow at times, but most of the time it was good. Ursula LeGuin is good.
Rating:
Summary: Relevant to adult ages as well as younger ages
Review: Read LeGuin's Earthsea Trilogy over 25 yrs. ago in college, and re-read them recently. Just as thought-provoking as ever and picked up on small details which I'd missed on first reading yrs. ago.Never fails to amaze me how LeGuin's depth of character portrayal (Ged in Wizard of Earthsea) and her depiction of life/death and beyond issues in simple profound terms, are endless delight to read and re-read for fresh insights. All of the Earthsea books can stand alone - a great writer is one whose books endings' always come too quickly! Recommend these books to adults who seek the "true Names of all things".

Summary: A great book, but not Tolkien
Review: If I could go one and only one fantasy realm it would be, of course, Middle-Earth. My second choice would be Earthsea. In this book Le Guin has created a vivid world that is easy the second best world in all fantasy. Tolkien is the Archmage. She is the second in command.

Summary: Fair
Review: brings you into the world of earthsea and into the mind of ged . I enjoyed the various properties of this world but I think the plot was slow but helps you learn about human nature through his actions
Rating:
Summary: A really good fantasy book
Review: This is a good book. I researched this book, and at first I thought it was going to be lame. The only objectionable thing about it was it's length. Or lack of it in this case. I read it and already it's time for the next one. I'm used to huge fantasy classics that are huge, and satisfy my need to read. Other than that, a superb book. (By the way if you have any suggestions for a good read that is fantasy or science fiction, please e-mail me and let me know. Preferably a series)
