"I love all of the Earthsea books and this is one of my favourites. I love the depth it adds to the world, and the short story format is wonderful. Jenny Sterlin is a very unique narrator, I became attached to her from her narration of Howl's Moving Castle. Her intonation is strange but also very charming. Some of the voices she puts on for the male characters are a bit odd, but overall a minor blip in a wonderful performance"
