About this event

“Classics on the Side” is an additional, informal book club meet-up, which focuses on older and classic works from the sci-fi and fantasy genres. To see the Classics on the Side booklists, visit our Goodreads account: https://www.goodreads.com/classics_on_the_side_kc

Join us to discuss “A Wizard of Earthsea" by Ursula K. Le Guin. First published in 1968, this classic fantasy adventure is perfect for readers of all ages. Told with a love of language, it is an almost meditative glimpse into the power of words. It is a journey that you feel like you could step into, full of magic and imagination that inspires.

Book synopsis from Goodreads:

Hungry for power and knowledge, Sparrowhawk tampered with long-held secrets and loosed a terrible shadow upon the world. This is the tale of his testing, how he mastered the mighty words of power, tamed an ancient dragon, and crossed death's threshold to restore the balance.
