Comprising: A Wizard of Earthsea, The Tombs of Atuan and The Farthest Shore
The Wizard of Earthsea Trilogy Comprising: A Wizard of Earthsea, The Tombs of Atuan and The Farthest Shore
Gollancz, 1971.
Three volumes all first UK editions. 8vo. Original boards in pictorial dustwrappers, with designs by David Smee. A near fine set in very near fine dustwrappers. The Tombs of Atuan has slight fading, much less than usual.
The author's most famous work, which broke ground for epic fantasy in several ways. The first part had a non-white hero, and the work as a whole explores the role of gender in fantasy and power structures, where the quest structure isn't good versus evil, but balance.
