    I have only read the first Earthsea book. I’m open to anything else by this author- I’m an adult, open to any genre. I only know this author for Earthsea, but I know that they are very well regarded. So, what should I read by them?:)

    1. In my opinion, second to the Earthsea series would be her **Hainish Cycle** series, with book 9 being released back in ’95-96. with the series taking the Locus Award for best collection in 2018. But just about everyhting she published is worth reading if you enjoy her writting. Especially check out **Lavinia** and **Powers**.
