3.5 stars. Well written novel (as usual for Ursula LeGuin) and second in the Earthsea Cycle after A Wizard of Earthsea. Despite liking the characters, the world created by LeGuin and appreciating the fact that it was well-written, the story just didn't hold my interest as much as I would have hoped. A good, fast read. Just not a great one.
