Hi!
I haven't really been online for a while now. I heard that a new movie is coming out called Gedo Senki? What is it about? I know it's based on Tales from Eathsea by Ursula K. Le Guin, but unfortunately, my library does not have the book.

i've read the first 4 books based in the earthsea world, its pretty good fantasy.
the first is about the main char as a boy going to learn to be a wizard (not anything like potter at all btw.... more gritty, extra darkness, and a much older book)
le guin writes in a pretty original way... the world has magic, dragons etc.
i'm still not sure which part of the earthsea world the movie will be based on... if its the short story collection thing i havnt read it
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN...9180932-0479033
is a good start really.. all the first 4 books in one. thats just a uk link but its sold worldwide as far as i know

Anyone who does not have these books should get them right now! They are very high on my favorites list.
As far as which the movie will be based off it's the third and fourth books.
I suggest reading all of them, but if somehow you don't have enough time the books can be read on their own, though any lover of fantasy will be seriously missing out if the don't read the others too!

Tess: but see that's just weird! I mean what would you think if your boyfriend suddenly turned into a dragon?
Me: (short pause) THAT WOULD BE SO COOL!!
