Description
The Other Wind is the final book in Ursula K. Le Guin's acclaimed Earthsea series. Alder, a sorcerer, fears sleep as the dead pull him towards them at night, threatening to free themselves and invade Earthsea. He seeks advice from Ged, once Archmage, who advises him to seek out Tenar, Tehanu, and the young king at Havnor. Together with Irian, an amber-eyed dragon able to assume the shape of a woman, they must confront the threat in the Immanent Grove on Roke, the holiest place in the world. This final book combines Le Guin's magical fantasy with a profoundly human touch, set against the backdrop of Earthsea's unique magic and mythology.
