The Farthest Shore by Ursula K. Le Guin
4.0
Read as part of the Earthsea Quartet collection.
There's always something so calming and peaceful about Earthsea. Many fantasy books have grand battles or tense political scheming or heist action but Earthsea is at its best with the quiet, peaceful moments. Whilst Ged and Arren are sailing the archipelago to save it from destruction it's the times when they're floating serenely along, fishing and swimming that are the most enjoyable.
The slightly surreal village of rafts off the edge of the world is amazing in its atmosphere as is.
The story itself wasn't very interesting for me but the feel was excellent (have I said that enough?).
Easily recommended to fans of the first 2 books.
