What this book is about

The sixth Earthsea novel follows a young wizard haunted by dreams of the dead — and the mystery of why the dragons seem connected to it. Le Guin's final Earthsea novel is quieter and more philosophical than earlier entries, concerned with the afterlife, the nature of being, and the wisdom of late life.
