The Earthsea Trilogy
By Ursula Le Guin
Three Volumes. First UK editions, first impressions, published between 1971 to 1973 by Victor Gollancz. A highlight series of high fantasy.
A Wizard of Earthsea:
Original brown cloth with lettering to spine in gilt with green endpapers and paste-downs. A near fine book with light spotting to edges, but contents entirely clean otherwise. The original and unclipped dust jacket is also near fine with the slightest hint of fading to the spine panel, some marginal toning to verso and a few unobtrusive marks to top fore-edges.
The Tombs of Atuan:
Original blue cloth with lettering to spine in gilt with pale green endpapers and paste-downs. Light spotting to edges with a few spots to front and rear endpapers and paste-downs, else near fine in a near fine and unclipped dust jacket with some very moderate fading to spine panel and marginal toning to verso with a hint of rubbing to spine head, else near fine.
The Farthest Shore:
Original grey cloth with lettering to spine in gilt and purple map endpapers and paste-downs. Near fine with some spotting to edges in a near fine dust jacket with minor fading to the spine panel and marginal, light spotting to verso.
A very attractive and uniquely well-preserved set.
