Also shout out to my local library. They didn't have this one, but had it shipped over from another library for me!

I really liked the book. There are a lot of cool ideas about how the magic works in this universe, and a ton of amazing world building. Earthsea feels like a real place, with its own rules, customs, and quirks.

There is something about the writing style that felt a bit off to me though. I honestly don't know how to explain it.

Terry Pratchett has an incredible writing style that only improved from the previous book. It's incredibly imaginative and witty. The book makes fun of fantasy cliches without becoming mean or bitter, and it got a chuckle out of me every time. The plot is addictive, the action hooks you in, the dialogue is very clever, and the world building is next level.

Finishing the book, I felt sad that I didn't have the next book for me to pick up and keep reading right away! It has an amazing conclusion that leaves you fulfilled but wanting for more, more of this.

This book helped keep me calm and distracted through a very stressful time. I don't think I'll ever forget reading this.

Put the book down for a while, but I'm glad to have come back and finished it. The book had less action and "cool tech" than I expected, it instead taking a lot of pleasure in exploring its world and populace.

The last parts of the book were a blur, perhaps intendedly so as the characters dash towards the conclusion.

Just picked up a copy today.
