It has been a really long time since I've read any fantasy book (it used to be my most read genre during my teenage years), so I started reading with very few expectations and I have to say I was very pleasantly surprised.
I really liked Le Guin's writing style and worldbuilding. Most of all, I really appreciated how she subtly but effectively wove the different themes into the main character's coming of age story.
I look forward to slowly making my way through the entire series.
