Ursula Le Guin has delighted readers with her charming and highly literate inventions in fantasy and science fiction, for which she has received many awards...Her best-known works are concerned with magic, sex, and poltics. Like the Taoist philosophy that has so deeply influenced her,much of LeGuin's writing -- especially the Earth-sea trilogy, her greatest achievement -- combines mystical elements with the familiar...Barbara Bucknall draws on her own pleasure in these stories, and on cooperation from Ursula LeGuin herself, to explore the development of the writer's work...
