Sobre este artículo
New York: Ace Books, 1968. Second Printing. Mass Market Paperback (MMPB). Near Fine. Ruth Robbins. The first in this masterfully creative author's "Earthsea" trilogy. Appears unread -- no evidence of read-crease to spine. Just a very tiny bit of shelfwear to very edges and corner of card cover. Small sticker to top right of front panel. Fabulous cover art by Ruth Robbins.
Clean, tight, bright. Rare in this condition. "A haunting tale of a proud, lonely boy striving to understand all there is to know. He uses his powers unwisely and too soon, opening a gateway into the land of the dead, and summoning up his own Death, which, abroad in the land of the living, seeks to consume him. Ultimately he must meet Death and face it. A Wizard of Earthsea is a major work of fantasy." (Quote from Amazing Stories on back of book).
