About A Wizard of Earthsea

Ged is a goatherd boy with raw, untamed power. Sent to the school of wizards on the island of Roke, his arrogance leads him to unleash a terrible shadow upon the world — one that hunts him across the archipelago of Earthsea. To survive, he must face and name what he has made.
