Loved these books.

Did not love the television mini-series.

I may just get that book.

I have the Frankenstein book, illustrated by Bernie Wrightson: https://www.google.com/books/edition/Bernie_Wrightson_s_Fran...



You're not alone. Ursula K. Le Guin hated the TV series, not least the casting of white actors for Ged, who is clearly described as dark-skinned in the books.


Do you like the animated one by Miyazaki’s son?


That's more "inspired by" rather than "based on" the novels, though.


Never saw that one.


I haven’t finished it yet but I like it ok as a newcomer to Earthsea. I certainly don’t think it was bad enough for his Dad to walk out of the theater at the premiere.
