I feel like this trilogy is the most “me” book I *haven’t* read. While I more respected than enjoyed this first introduction to the world of Earthsea and the hero Ged, I’m holding off judgment until I finish the series. As for this first book, I enjoyed the Star Wars Jedi vibe, Jungian psychology, and linguistic magic system.
