10 Fantasy Books With Magical Schools (That Aren’t Harry Potter) ...Middle East

A Wizard of Earthsea

(Clarion Books)

Ursula K. Le Guin’s A Wizard of Earthsea features the original fantasy wizard academy – popularizing the idea of magical schools. The story takes place in the globe spanning archipelago of Earthsea, where the young magic adept Ged leaves behind a budding career as a goatherd to pursue the arcane arts. After accompanying an old wizard for a while, Ged turns his back on his master in order to attend The School of Wizardry on Roke Island – to pursue power in direct opposition to his former mentor’s teachings. As Uncle Ben once said, power comes with responsibility – and while Ged has natural aptitude for the former, he sorely lacks a sense for the latter. After attempting a dangerous spell to impress a rival, Ged ends up summoning a dark spirit to the world of Earthsea – a Jungian shadow self that he will be forced to spend the rest of his youth attempting to banish. Harry Potter never had to confront inner demons now, did he?
