The Earthsea Trilogy and Tehanu by Ursula K. Le Guin
The Wizard of Earthsea, The Tombs of Atuan, The Farthest Shore, and Tehanu are all part of the Earthsea Series by Ursula K. Le Guin. Two other books in the series are Tales from Earthsea and The Other Wind.
Ursula K. Le Guin has created a beautiful and mysterious world populated by people who are very different from us and yet have the same motivations and goals. There is the struggle of life, the lure of power to be weilded fairly or unfairly, good versus evil, and - most important in Earthsea - keeping the balance.
The magic in Earthsea is a solid part of the world. It is part of the basic chores of living and is well accepted. Follow Ged in his journeys through Earthsea helping people and keeping the balance.
These books are MUCH better than the Sci-Fi networks miniseries of the books that came out this year. Much better.
