A Wizard of Earthsea (The Earthsea Cycle: Kindle for $7.19 + free shipping
Price dropped even more.
Originally published in 1968, Ursula K. Le Guin’s A Wizard of Earthsea marks the first of the six now beloved Earthsea titles. Ged was the greatest sorcerer in Earthsea, but in his youth he was the reckless Sparrowhawk. In his hunger for power and knowledge, he tampered with long-held secrets and loosed a terrible shadow upon the world. This is the tumultuous 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.
Even if it's less than the inflated list price, $7.19 for a 210-page book still just feels like too much.
@kcostell: I guess if you think in terms of paying per word, but I'd still rather read "The Phantom Tollbooth" than "War and Peace" for any dollar amount.
This is 10% off. I expect more of woot. Great book though.
