Histoire
A groundbreaking work of science fiction, The Left Hand of Darkness tells the story of a lone human emissary to Winter, an alien world whose inhabitants can change their gender. His goal is to facilitate Winter's inclusion in a growing intergalactic civilization. But to do so he must bridge the gulf between his own views and those of the completely dissimilar culture that he encounters. Embracing the aspects of psychology, society, and human emotion on an alien world, The Left Hand of Darkness stands as a landmark achievement.

God is change. That is the central truth of the Earthseed movement, whose unlikely prophet is 18-year-old Lauren Olamina. The young woman's diary entries tell the story of her life amid a violent 21st-century hell of walled neighborhoods and drug-crazed pyromaniacs - and reveal her evolving Earthseed philosophy. Against a backdrop of horror emerges a message of hope: if we are willing to embrace divine change, we will survive to fulfill our destiny among the stars.

When Michael Moorcock began chronicling the adventures of the albino sorcerer Elric, last king of decadent Melniboné, and his sentient vampiric sword, Stormbringer, he set out to create a new kind of fantasy adventure, one that broke with tradition and reflected a more up-to-date sophistication of theme and style. The result was a bold and unique hero: a rock-and-roll antihero who would channel all the violent excesses of the '60s into one enduring archetype.

Description
"The shapeless mass of darkness split apart. It sundered, and a pale spindle of light gleamed between his open arms. In the oval of light there moved a human shape: a tall woman...beautiful, and sorrowful, and full of fear." - from A Wizard of Earthsea, first in a tetralogy that includes The Tombs of Atuan and The Farthest Shore, introduces the listener to Ged, the greatest sorcerer in all Earthsea, known also as Sparrowhawk. When Sparrowhawk casts a spell that saves his village from destruction at the hands of the invading Kargs, Ogion, the Mage of Re Albi, encourages the boy to apprentice himself in the art of wizardry. So, at the age of 13, the boy receives his true name - Ged - and gives himself over to the gentle tutelage of the Master Ogion. But impatient with the slowness of his studies and infatuated with glory, Ged embarks for the Island of Roke, where the highest arts of wizardry are taught. There, Ged's natural talents enable him to surpass his classmates in little time. But when his vanity prompts him to summon Elfarran, the fair lady of the Deed of Enlad, he unleashes a shapeless mass of darkness - the shadow.

Loved this book and series since I was a teen
this has always been one of my favorite books in one of my favorite series. It is dark and epic and grandiose. The protagonist is likeable, despite his fallability, or maybe because of it. His growth is great to follow.

Outstanding Fantasy
This novel reminds me of Patrick Rothfuss' "The Kingkiller Chronicles'" - a lot - but it's clearly aimed at a younger audience (the writing is just a little too immature). The book follows the progression and training of a legendary Wizard from his discovery of sorcerous powers as an impetuous boy to his eventual revelation as a wise conqueror of Dragons and Evil Spirits.
LeGuin's Ged - Sparrowhawk - is an eminently human character.. complete with insecurities and personal faults. He is a hero, but one that is relatable. The author's descriptions are vivid and the events are captivating and filled with adventure. LeGuin pens a thought-provoking morality tale confronting impatience and hubris.. while simultaneously providing an entertaining chronicle and introducing a fascinating Fantasy setting (Earthsea).
Rob Inglis is a very good narrator (clear, excellent diction, admirable tone), but his slow style of reading reminds me that this is a children's story. It is perhaps appropriate to the intended audience.. very much like reading a comfortable bedtime story.. but somewhat annoying for an Adult. I sped it up to 1.15X and the result was excellent.
I bought this as a Daily Deal, but will likely continue this charming tetralogy. Although it's ideally meant for kids aged 10-14 or so, this recording merits 8.5 out of 10 stars even to an adult reader, and promises good things to come.

i kept falling asleep
I was actually really excited to listen to this book. the summary and reviews really sold me on the story.
then the narrator began. and it's not his fault. but his voice is so soothing. I could not stay awake!
I tried three separate times to listen to this, but I couldn't make it.
I gave the book 5 stars because this is most likely just me. I'm sure the book is wonderful, and the story is wonderful. it's honestly just the narrator. his voicing isn't even boring or anything. I literally just end up feeling so calm and falling asleep haha

I was so relieved when I got to the end. There was so nothing here. World development was good, but oh I never really knew any of the people. The narrator even seemed bored with it. Glad it was short.
