5.0

Earthsea is all one book. Each segment means so much more the more you read all of them again and again so that Ged and Tenar and Tehanu can be all of their ages at once as you revisit.

The audiobook narration is an old fashioned style and I don't think a British man suits this series, considering the author. I think Tenar's book in particular should be read by a woman.
