Unfortunately most people limit their knowledge of UleG's writing to the Earthsea trilogy and it's additions. While these are a good introduction, for a younger reader, the depth and breath of her work is worth investigating.

@Guy @spencerbeswick Having just reread Tehanu, it doesn't seem to me at all pitched towards younger readers? (Frankly, I think the original trilogy is a form of literature to which age categories don't really apply. But the fourth book would be a hard sell to younger readers, being completely about middle age and womanhood.)

I agree, they aren't "standard" kids fare but are punted at kids.

@Guy @spencerbeswick I believe she's the single most important author in the development of SFF into a modern art form
