Honors Book Discussion with Dr. Cody Marrs

October 29 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

REGISTRATION REQUIRED – All book discussion sign-ups are announced at the beginning of every semester on the Honors listserv

  • Book: A WIZARD OF EARTHSEA by Ursula K. Le Guin
  • Discussion Leader: Dr. Cody Marrs, Professor of English
  • Date: Tuesday, October 29, 6:00-8:00pm
  • Location: Moore Hall 116
  • Description: Ged was the greatest sorcerer in the archipelago of Earthsea, but in his youth he was the reckless Sparrowhawk. In his hunger for power and knowledge, he tampered with long-held secrets and loosed a terrible shadow upon the world. This is the tumultuous tale of his testing, how he mastered the mighty words of power, tamed an ancient dragon, and crossed death’s threshold to restore the balance. A Wizard of Earthsea tells Ged’s epic coming-of-age story and stands as the first installment in The Earthsea Cycle, a series beloved by fantasy fans while also breaking traditional fiction fantasy molds in Le Guin’s subversive style.
