About this listen
'Told with shimmering lyricism, this coming-of-age saga will leave readers transformed' BOOKLIST
'Le Guin is a writer of phenomenal power' OBSERVER
'A tour de force' EVENING STANDARD
The final part in the story that started with GIFTS, and the tale of Gry Barre of Roddmant and Orrec Caspro of Caspromant, two children with extraordinary powers.
They play a part in VOICES too, the sequel to GIFTS, in which Memer, a girl who has grown up in a captured city, is part of the people's fight for freedom.
And now, in POWERS, we have the conclusion to Ursula Le Guin's beautifully written, powerful and moving story of the Western Isles, a tale that will leave every reader begging for more.
Critic Reviews
Her worlds have a magic sheen . . . She moulds them into dimensions we can only just sense. She is unique. She is legend
[Le Guin had] the heart of a poet who knew all too well the difference between miracle and eureka, revelation and revolution
She is unparalleled in creating fantasy peopled by finely drawn and complex characters
Le Guin's storytelling is sharp, magisterial, funny, thought-provoking and exciting, exhibiting all that science fiction can be
Told with shimmering lyricism, this coming-of-age saga will leave readers transformed
Powers is rich with action, with battles, escapes, strategy, and skulduggery, but it has a still, quiet place at its heart, a place of moral complexity
In her facility in world-making and her interest in human nature, Le Guin stands above almost all of what's out there. Her exploration of identity and power, of social structures and the meaning of freedom, can only enrich her readers
