5.0 out of 5 stars
Earthsea is always great,
This review is from: Tehanu: The Last Book Of Earthsea (Puffin Books) (Paperback)
This book continues right from the end of The Furthest Shore. The story is slower then the other three, yet it is also much deeper. The primary themes again are being: who are we? Especially who are we after loss? For Tenar/Ghoa it is the loss of husband; for Ged the loss of power, ceasing to be a mage. Also it is man's struggle to conquer death.
We also learn in this book that in earthsea, man and dragons were once one race. Men are the children of dragons that horded and built fortresses and forgot how to fly. Therru is an adopted child of Tenar and we find out that she is really the daughter of Kalessin the oldest of dragons. Yet we also find out that Kalessin is really Segoy the creator of earthsea. Segoy leaves his daughter with Ged and Tenar saying he will one day be given a child by them. Key Notes on Names: Tenar / Gohn - Arha Ged / Sparrowhawk - Hawk - Duny Therru / Tehanu Kalessin / Segoy - Oldest Origon / Aihak |
