Tales from Earthsea (Earthsea Cycle #5)

4.5 stars
Somehow, having the penultimate book in this series be an anthology works perfectly for what Earthsea is. This book is more about the world, Earthsea itself, than any other book before it. LeGuin was able to gather all the threads that were left from previous books and start showing you where they make a complete whole. The first few stories were a bit dull in places but the last two are among my favorite stories in the entire series and the way they all interact with each other and move the narrative of Earthsea forward (even if some of them are set in the distant past) is masterful.
The Finder - 3.5/5
Darkrose and Diamond - 4/5
The Bones of the Earth - 4/5
On the High Marsh - 5/5
Dragonfly - 5/5
