It is a world of islands, surrounded by a sea that cannot be fully charted. Le Guin introduced our world to hers in 1968 for the first time. The first page I flipped to, with art that drew me in for several minutes. I loved the whole series, but hadn’t had the opportunity to pick it up again until I got to check out the new Simon and Schuster offering of The Books of Earthsea: The Complete Illustrated Edition. Le Guin rather than continue one chapter a week with the other students. I turned the book report in after only a few days, and requested to read the rest of the Earthsea Cycle by Ursula K. Its name was A Wizard of Earthsea, and I was immediately enamored. Many, many moons ago (we won’t talk about just how many), I was assigned a book to read.
