Ged, the greatest sorcerer in all Earthsea, was called Sparrowhawk in his reckless youth.

Hungry for power and knowledge, Sparrowhawk tampered with long-held secrets and loosed a terrible shadow upon the world. This is the 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.

Sounds like we have had very similar reading experiences with this one...makes me surprised there are so many positive reviews for this book.

I agree, and it makes me wonder if it's just because it's a classic fantasy.
