Ace, 2003
Fascinating
+ Absolutely one of my most favorite book sieries.
For many years I didn't pick up LeGuin's Earthsea cycle. What a mistake! The entire series is first rate, a cut above the usual fantasy novels.

I haven't read this book in a long time, but I feel obligated to write a review due to the vast amount of controversy over it.

Tehanu (The Earthsea Cycle, Book 4) 150 reviews Ursula K. Le Guin
Pocket, 2004
one opinion...take it or leave it
+ Social Roles Defined
I had the pleasure of reading the entire cycle from A Wizard of Earthsea through to The Other Wind in a two month period. Apparently for some people, having to wait several years between the end of The Farthest Shore and Tehanu gave them time to build up rather unrealistic expectations of what ...

The Prophet of Yonwood (Books of Ember) 75 reviews Jeanne Duprau
Yearling, 2007
Clever, clever, clever
+ Not like the other books in the series. + Great addition to the books of ember
This is a thoughtful book about the dangers of blind belief. I would say its Author is Buddhist rather than a right-wing Evangelical. It helps make the leap from today to 200 years in the future. Good writing, good story. I enjoyed it.
