"The sorcerer Alder fears sleep. He dreams of the land of death, of his wife who died young and longs to return to him so much that she kissed him across the low stone wall that separates our world from the Dry Land - where the grass is withered, the stars never move, and lovers pass without knowing each other. The dead are pulling Alder to them at night. Through him they may free themselves and invade Earthsea.".

"Alder seeks advice from Ged, once Archmage. Ged tells him to go to Tenar, Tehanu, and the young king at Havnor. They are joined by amber-eyed Irian, a fierce dragon able to assume the shape of a woman." "This group can confront the threat only in the Immanent Grove on Roke. Joining them, Alder, a mender of pots, may be the only one who can mend the world."--BOOK JACKET.

The Other Wind

5 stars

"The Other Wind" est le sixième et dernier tome du cycle Earthsea d'Ursula K. Le Guin, également connu en français sous le nom de cycle de Terremer.

Après Tales from Earthsea qui était un recueil de nouvelles, ce dernier tome retrouve la forme romanesque des quatre premiers. Le récit prend la suite de celui du quatrième tome, Tehanu, complété par les informations disséminées dans les nouvelles du cinquième. On comprend d’ailleurs mieux en lisant ce dernier tome pourquoi ces nouvelles du précédent étaient essentielles pour boucler le récit et en comprendre tous les enjeux.

Review of 'The Other Wind' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

"The Other Wind" by Ursula Le Guin is the final novel of the Earthsea Cycle. Many authors have trouble with the final novel in a series. They sometime struggle to bring all the points together into a satisfying conclusion. But I think that Le Guin really stuck the landing. She wrote a great novel that not only brings various threads from the other novels together but makes you think differently about those other novels. My first reaction upon finishing it, besides immense satisfaction, is that I want to start the series again knowing what I know now. It is an excellent capstone to what has become one of my favorite fiction series.
