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?

reviewed A Wizard Of Earthsea by Ursula K. Le Guin

Very enjoyable but of its time

4 stars

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.
