Editor's Review ★★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Rob Inglis' narration is a standout feature of this audiobook. His ability to capture Ged's youthful arrogance and subsequent growth is nothing short of remarkable. The pacing is steady, allowing the story's depth to unfold organically. However, I found the description of Earthsea's magic system a tad confusing at times, which could have been clearer with more exposition. Overall, 'A Wizard of Earthsea' is a captivating listen that leaves a lasting impression.
