Fantasy

The Farthest Shore

by Ursula K. Le Guin

Book 3 of the Earthsea Cycle series

Magic and meaning are draining from Earthsea, leaving wizards powerless and communities shadowed by despair. An older Ged sails with the young prince Arren to find the source of the loss. Their voyage reaches islands where the desire to escape death has begun eroding life itself. Meditative and sea-swept, this fantasy suits an overcast weekend for readers interested in mentorship, mortality, leadership, and the courage required to accept limits.
