    One of the greatest stories..
  

*by M***W on Reviewed in the United States on November 26, 2012*

Aside from the Harry Potter series being largely ripped off from the details of Ursula LeGuins masterpiece...  The wizard Ged creates,  through his vanity and insecurity,  a shadow in the world which only he can master and put to rest.  And this mistake of childhood follows him through his life in small ways ... the vanity,  the temper.  In an act of cruel temperhe forces a fellow wizard to walk with him to the Dry Land,  to death,  and back again,  hoping to stop him from compelling the spirits of the dead to walk among us at his beckon call .  But it backfires and the end of all things nearly occurs because,  again,  of his own temper,  it seems,  that brings about more evil than evil people.  So many morals are taught,  from this one,  that our bad intentions ring for many years after,  to ...  how to talk to dragons,  how to weave a spell,  to welcome the visiting spirit,  to listen to the language of water and know the names of all things...  Its a spiritual journey,  simply writtenbut deeply trod.  I love it and read it often.  And I am always renewed.  I wish there were more stories about this hero,or others in this world she invented back in the 60's.  She describes the Earthsea world as revealing itself to her,  rather than her making it up... and I almost believe it.  For  me, as I try also to undo the past and weave into the spells of today a forgiveness not only of myself,  but of all things that walk this earth, I know there is a magic in all we do ,  one we take forgranted.  For it is in the land of the living that we belong, to live outloud,  to meet dragons in their own domain,  chase dieing children into the land of death to save them,  to walk with the shadow of our own hell,  and,  learning its name,  be at peace with ourselves.  Here for so short a moment, then forever to walk upon the dry land where mother and child sit,  unknowing,  near one another,and those who died for love pass each other on the street. All this is in this little book.  Everything from the nature of the evil ..the weaving of spells, the thrill of arriving at the school of wizardry,  these things that had not been written aboutuntil Ms. Le Guin. The masters of Roke are as alive to me as my own teachers,  and why not?  Anything is possible if you believe and can see the ways it might manifest.  Good reading for ages 10 and up,  I'd say.
