Description

One of the Time 100 Best Fantasy Books Of All Time The Newbery Honor–winning
second novel in the renowned Earthsea series from Ursula K. LeGuin. In this
second novel in the Earthsea series, Tenar is chosen as high priestess to the
ancient and nameless Powers of the Earth, and everything is taken from
her—home, family, possessions, even her name. She is now known only as Arha,
the Eaten One, and guards the shadowy, labyrinthine Tombs of Atuan. Then a
wizard, Ged Sparrowhawk, comes to steal the Tombs’ greatest hidden treasure,
the Ring of Erreth-Akbe. Tenar’s duty is to protect the Ring, but Ged
possesses the light of magic and tales of a world that Tenar has never known.

domain? With millions of copies sold worldwide, Ursula K. Le Guin’s Earthsea
Cycle has earned a treasured place on the shelves of fantasy lovers
