 the second novel in the original earthsea trilogy, the tale of ged, the wizard of earthsea.
#1: "a wizard of earthsea" (1968), q.v.also for earthsea-set books' listing, and links;
#3: "the farthest shore", (1972), q.v.

further earthsea novels written a decade and more later are not parts of the earthsea trilogy (obviously, one trusts), though they may include ged as one of the characters.

an earlier novella/short novel version was "serialized" in worlds of fantasy vol.1 #3, winter 1970-71, q.v.
