Description
"After the extraordinary success of the Earthsea novels, Ursula K. Le Guin returned in late career to the young adult fantasy genre with a trilogy of coming-of-age novels set in the far-flung Western Shore. These tales of teenagers struggling to come to terms with their own mysterious and magical gifts showcase the imaginative generosity and abiding human concerns that mark Le Guin's work, and together they form an elegant anthem to the transformative power of storytelling. This acclaimed trilogy is gathered here in one volume for the first time, complete with illustrated endpapers featuring newly colorized versions of Le Guin's own hand-drawn maps of her imagined world. This deluxe collector's edition includes Le Guin's talks and interviews about the novels, a chronology of her life and career, and helpful explanatory notes."--,Provided by publisher.
