Episode 69 - The Farthest Shore, by Ursula K. LeGuin

In which we return to Earthsea only to witness it quickly unraveling! The Farthest Shore by Ursula K. Le Guin has ego death, mutiny and some excellent dragons - but can you make it through the despair of Earthsea’s magical apocalypse? Grace and Madeleine compare their personal experiences with this book and discuss Le Guin’s motivation for destroying her own creation. We mourn the lack of female characters and tasty food, but still have plenty to explore as we accompany Lookfar out into the endless ocean.
