I haven’t read Earthsea, but I have heard nothing but great things about Ursala K. Le Guin.

Earthsea is a fascinating read. The first book is 1960s groundbreaking fantasy that forms part of the root of all modern fantasy, but feels very old by modern standards. The series saw infrequent releases for decades, creating a window into how fantasy has matured.

I’m currently reading through Wheel of Time, which is significantly more modern than I realized.

It’s on the reading list, but I’m trapped by flows of Air currently.
