Two coming of age novels in a fantasy world richly imagined by Ursula K. Le Guin. Ged is a reckless and young mage from Gont, learning through action the consequences he faces form those actions while Tenar is a young girl, stripped of her family, name and made to serve the nameless ones. Both stories are similar in that both Ged and Tenar have to search for their identity within their true selves, though the stories are incredibly varied.

‘A Wizard of Earthsea’ is a sweeping adventure novel taking us to all corners of the world, while ‘The Tombs of Atuan’ are a deeply personal, introspective journey in an impersonal world. A rich tapestry of adventure and personal attendance, Le Guin’s ability to tell a tale will comfort you, as well as wow you.
