Often compared to Tolkien's Middle-earth or Lewis's Narnia, Ursula K. Le Guin's Earthsea is a stunning fantasy world that grabs quickly at our hearts, pulling us deeply into its imaginary realms. Four books (A Wizard of Earthsea, The Tombs of Atuan, The Farthest Shore, and Tehanu) tell the whole Earthsea cycle--a tale about a reckless, awkward boy named Sparrowhawk who becomes a wizard's apprentice after the wizard reveals Sparrowhawk's true name. The boy comes to realize that his fate may be far more important than he ever dreamed possible. Le Guin challenges her readers to think about the power of language, how in the act of naming the world around us we actually create that world. Teens, especially, will be inspired by the way Le Guin allows her characters to evolve and grow into their own powers.
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.

評分 評分地海巫師 譯本文字乾淨凝煉,幻想小說能有這麼好的文字,字字句句有意思,真是很難得。 即使是這樣,隔著語言的鴻溝,沒辦法讀原著,文字仍然給閱讀者如此美妙感受——原作者想必很好,譯者也實在不錯,譯的人叫蔡美玲。 好多年前我讀到一本《霍比特人》,也覺得文字很好,...
評分I·巫師 地海係列的基調,是鼕日大海的陰冷與苦澀。從傑德幼年的受傷開始,我們看到時光之手如何慢慢將他治愈。而藥渣留在瞭記憶中,所以連空氣都是苦的。 一開始,我以為勒奎恩想探究的是一個人要犯多少錯誤纔能成長,然後發現這是一個關於如何對抗恐懼的故事,到最後頓悟兩...
評分颱版翻譯非常好 .... 惟靜默,生言語, 惟黑暗,成光明, 惟死亡,得再生, 鷹揚虛空,燦兮明兮 Only in silence the word, only in dark the light, only in dying life: bright the hawk's flight on the empty sky.
