Description
A young boy, sent to a school of wizardry, learns the ways of magic and discovers his own powers in this epic fantasy quartet. Ged's journey takes him from a goatherd on the island of Gont to the School of Wizards on Roke, where he learns the true way of magic and proves himself a powerful magician.
As Ged navigates the complexities of magic and the forces of evil, he witnesses true magic and the ancient ways submit to darkness. Will he too succumb, or can he hold back the forces of death? This beautifully written fantasy world, with its richly detailed magic system and compelling characters, is a worthwhile read for fans of epic fantasy.
