I've just finished the second novel of the Earthsea saga.
I liked it much more than the first one. I loved Tenar more than I loved Ged. She felt more human, more well rounded, and relatable. The world building in the first part of the book was interesting, bleak and ritualistic, and of a ancient earthy flavour.
Le Guin's prose is always such a pleasure as well, not a word too much not a word too few, she has this power of conjuring something pure in my mind, that I love.
