A Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula Le Guin

A Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula Le Guin

This is a tale of wizards, dragons and terrifying shadows. The young wizard Sparrowhawk, tempted by pride to try spells beyond his powers, lets loose an evil shadow-beast in the land. Only he can destroy it, and this quest leads him to the farthest corner of Earthsea.
