Le Guin has managed to craft quite a moving trilogy that highlights the magic outside of the spells. Reading the books back to back has been such a pleasure!!!

I saved a copy of this book from the donations pile at the library I worked at eight years ago and finally got around to reading it. It’s funny how you can read a book at the perfect time - it wouldn’t  have been the same had I read it earlier than now. 

(I may have developed a knack for this)
