Summary:

'The island of Gont is a land famous for wizards.' So begins an epic journey that takes the boy Ged from his life of servitude to Roke, the isle of the wise, where the skills of wizardry are learned. There, in pride and anger, he conjures a dark and malevolent spirit that sorcery cannot conquer. Pursued by this menace, Ged must flee across the oceans and islands of Earthsea, searching for a means to defeat it.

A classic fantasy novel that set the benchmark for everything that came after it.
