Tales from Earthsea
by Ursula K. Le Guin (Author)
The tales of this book explore and extend the world established by the Earthsea novels, yet each stands on its own as a powerful tale of Earthsea and its mystical inhabitants.
Featuring an original novella, The Finder, and a selection of the classic short stories which served as the basis for Ursula K. Le Guin's epic fantasy saga, this collection is an essential addition to the lore of Earthsea. Concluding with an account of the archipelago's history, people, languages, literature, and magic and featuring two new maps of Earthsea, readers of the series will be fascinated by the material on offer in Tales from Earthsea.
