Tehanu: The Fourth Book of Earthsea brings you back into the enchanting world crafted by renowned author Ursula K. Le Guin. This exquisite hardback edition is not just a continuation of the beloved Earthsea trilogy; it's a journey of depth, magic, and self-discovery.
In this captivating tale, we reunite with two iconic characters: the resilient young priestess Tenar and the once-powerful wizard Ged. Years have passed since they first crossed paths amidst darkness and danger. Tenar has embraced a life of simplicity, while Ged struggles with the profound loss of his magical abilities. Their lives take an unexpected turn as they are drawn together again to protect a wounded child whose enigmatic fate intertwines with their own.
Featuring stunning illustrations by Charles Vess, this hardback edition brings to life the rich landscapes and profound emotions of Earthsea. Le Guin's masterful storytelling is complemented by powerful themes of healing, identity, and the complex nature of power. As acclaimed author Neil Gaiman reflects, "This trilogy transformed my perception of the world, infusing it with a magic far more profound than any I'd previously encountered." David Mitchell urges, "Imbibe this magic. Immerse yourself in it. Dream it."
Discover the magic anew with Tehanu: The Fourth Book of Earthsea and let your imagination soar through Le Guin's unforgettable prose.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.
This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.
We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.
Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
