Wonderful books. Wonderful edition. Just. . . wonderful. “Ursula K. Le Guin's Earthsea novels and stories are set in the far-flung archipelago of Earthsea. The original three novels in the 1960s and 70s were the first and most successful of the descendants of J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings and were the progenitors, in their turn, of all the wizard school and dragonlord fantasy series that have come since. But then Le Guin returned 18 years later, after ‘all the thought and rethinking of the second wave of feminism,’ with 3 more novels to complete the series. Now, all 6 books are featured in Library of America's The Complete Earthsea, a handsome, heirloom boxed set featuring original art by Olivia Lomenech Gill “ #77081
