Tehanu
Ursula LeGuin
The long-awaited fourth in the Earthsea series, Tehanu follows the path of Tenar, main character of the second novel in this series. Tehanu isn't quite as powerful as the previous three - the ending is a little...abrupt - but it's still...wonderful. Beautifully written. Ursula LeGuin has a mastery of the language that is inspiring. I find myself thinking more poetically when I read her words. LeGuin is a truly powerful writer, and in Tenar, she finds the perfect vehicle for her voice.

- I'm a crazy liberal married to a soldier. I love to cook and write and read and draw and sing and walk around outside pretending I'm the outdoor type. I live in North Yorkshire, England, after having lived in Anchorage, Alaska. I'm originally from South Carolina. Someday I will create a recipe combining all those places.
