2014/12/02 Брала книгу взаймы у знакомых, при этом получила её с предупреждением, мол, до неё дорасти надо. Не знаю насчет "дорасти", но мне она пошла. МОЯ книга. (Кто знает, тот поймет.) Прочитала взахлеб. До сих пор в диком восторге. Во многом заслуга переводчика. Сейчас в планах перечитать на языке оригинала. I am gratified to find that LeGuin's fantasy is every bit as great as I remembered it from high school. Sparrowhawk (Ged) is a young wizard studying with his mentor on their small island. But he has grander dreams and deeper ambition and his innate power and his pride push him to go and study with a school for wizards on the isle of Roke. But his pride and ambition push him to perform a spell that releases a great shadow into the world - one that won't rest until it consumes him. Le Guin spins a tale that explores power and its use, but it is also a tale of redemption, of learning from our mistakes and one of growing and maturing with time. Power without restraint is dangerous and Ged learns this lesson, but now he must go on a journey to discover himself and in that discovery he must find a path to amends and redemption. Exciting after Ged leaves Roke, satisfactory conclusion. Appartiene alle SerieAppartiene alle Collane EditorialiÈ contenuto inHa come commento al testo
Ged was the greatest sorcerer in all Earthsea, but once he was called Sparrowhawk, a reckless youth, hungry for power and knowledge, who tampered with long-held secrets and loosed a terrible shadow upon the world. This is the tale of his testing, how he mastered the mighty words of power, tamed an ancient dragon, and crossed death's threshold to restore the balance.

Granted, it's my experience reading it.
For instance, son of the family friends I borrowed the book from (first reading) couldn't quite 'click' with it. His father somewhat humorously remarked that one needs to have a certain level of maturity to enjoy reading The Earthsea Cycle.
I tend to agree, except I'd add that one needs certain kind of maturity to enjoy oneself.
