Price: US$82.71 + shipping
Description: First edition: octavo; hardcover, with gilt spine titles and endpaper maps; gray cloth boards; 206pp. Minor wear; slightly rolled; light softening to the spine extremities; text block edges toned with some spotting and top edge dusted. Unclipped dustwrapper rubbed; spine panel sunned; now professionally protected by superior non-adhesive polypropylene film. Very good. Postage quoted is for a standard format octavo book. Final charges may vary depending on size and weight. Magic is drying up and vanishing from the world of Earthsea. Sparrowhawk, the Archmage of Roke, accompanied by Arren, the Prince of Enlad, travels to the Farthest Shore - realm of the dead - guided by dragons to discover how they can save the world, even at the cost of their own lives. This is the third volume in the original Earthsea Trilogy which brought Le Guin fame as a fantasy writer of merit (two more books were much later added to the series and a collection of short stories).
