Produktbeschreibungen
Amazon.co.uk
Often compared to Tolkien's Middle-Earth or Lewis's Narnia, Ursula K. Le Guin's Earthsea is a stunning fantasy world that grabs quickly at our hearts, pulling us deeply into its imaginary realms. Four books (A Wizard of Earthsea, The Tombs of Atuan, The Farthest Shore and Tehanu) tell the whole Earthsea cycle--a tale about a reckless, awkward boy named Sparrowhawk who becomes a wizard's apprentice after the wizard reveals Sparrowhawk's true name. The boy comes to realize that his fate may be far more important than he ever dreamed possible. Le Guin challenges her readers to think about the power of language, how in the act of naming the world around us we actually create that world. Teens, especially, will be inspired by the way Le Guin allows her characters to evolve and grow into their own powers.
In this first book, A Wizard of Earthsea readers will witness Sparrowhawk's moving rite of passage--when he discovers his true name and becomes a young man. Great challenges await Sparrowhawk, including an almost deadly battle with a sinister creature, a monster that may be his own shadow. -- Dieser Text bezieht sich auf eine vergriffene oder nicht verfügbare Ausgabe dieses Titels.

It seems I´m one of the very few who are not enthusiastic about this book. The story didn´t really catch me. Though the narrative style is beautiful, I found it to be too slow somehow and what bugged me most is, that I couldn´t get to know the main character as I would have liked to. Usually, it helps me to get to know many small details about the daily life, the thoughts and inner monologues of a character, or dialogues between the characters. Here, the descriptions of his life are so general, that it was really more like reading a fairy tale without much background for me.

I have all four of the earthsea books, and have to say that the first one is the best. We are introduced to the major character in the series, Ged, and his beginnings to becoming an archmage. I remember reading this many years ago in high school and just being in rapture while reading it. The chasing of the shadow...very metaphorical. Although the next 3 in the series only get 3 stars from me, this one is definately a 4.

This book was so unstimulating that i read in in one day just to be rid of it. The characters remain undeveloped as the very modest storyline unfolds itself. For readers of younger ages (10-12) this book would be very interesting because it poses no intellectual difficulties. It passes over months of the characters life with barely a word. It left me with a feeling of com,plete and utter lack of connection with the main character. The fact that someone would even compare this book to Tolkien let alone praising it over him is rediculous. I would actually reread sewctions of the book figuring i must have left out an entire chapter since seemingly important sections of a characters life were just passed by. I would not recommend this book to anyone over the age of 13 unless you have an afternoon to waste.

C.G.Jung applied
For those who don't know already: This book is the literary description of some important part of C.G.Jung's psychology: get to know (your own) shadow, the dark side. Lesen Sie weiter...

An interesting look at magic
This is my first adventure into the writing of Le Guin, and it was certainly worth it. The magic is unique. Lesen Sie weiter...

Worth a short visit.
This is the first Le Grin book I've read for many years. WhileI don't remember the details of the earlier books, I do remember thefeeling I had entering her world. Lesen Sie weiter...

of lyrical and even archetypal power...
....a tale of the young Ged becoming a mage, getting past his pride, and learning about the shadow....very good fantasy writing and psychologically sound as well. Lesen Sie weiter...

Jungian psychology at its best...
Not only is the "Earthsea" trilogy a wonderful series for adolescents but it also contains profound wisdom for adults seeking their own path to individuation. Lesen Sie weiter...

Probably LeGuin's best work
I'm a big fan of "A Wizard of Earthsea", which I consider LeGuin's best writing, certainly as far as style is concerned. Lesen Sie weiter...

The Perfect Start...
'A Wizard of Earthsea' is the perfect beginning to an awesome quartet of impeccable fantasy. Deeper and more introspective than Tolkein's albeit unassailable 'Lord of the Rings',... Lesen Sie weiter...

Good Read, too short and over-hyped...borrow it.
After reading a lot of second rate books I hope Earthsea would be a whole new look on fantasy. It still came out a disappointment, the book is written a little to childish for me. Lesen Sie weiter...
