（以下摘自维基百科）
Le Guin was born in Berkeley, California, to author Theodora Kroeber and anthropologist Alfred Louis Kroeber. Having earned a master's degree in French, Le Guin began doctoral studies but abandoned these after her marriage in 1953 to historian Charles Le Guin. She began writing full-time in the late 1950s and achieved major critical and commercial success with A Wizard of Earthsea (1968) and The Left Hand of Darkness (1969), which have been described by Harold Bloom as her masterpieces. For the latter volume, Le Guin won both the Hugo and Nebula awards for best novel, becoming the first woman to do so. Several more works set in Earthsea or the Hainish universe followed; others included books set in the fictional country of Orsinia, several works for children, and many anthologies.
Cultural anthropology, Taoism, feminism, and the writings of Carl Jung all had a strong influence on Le Guin's work. Many of her stories used anthropologists or cultural observers as protagonists, and Taoist ideas about balance and equilibrium have been identified in several writings. Le Guin often subverted typical speculative fiction tropes, such as through her use of dark-skinned protagonists in Earthsea, and also used unusual stylistic or structural devices in books such as the experimental work Always Coming Home (1985). Social and political themes, including race, gender, sexuality, and coming of age were prominent in her writing, and she explored alternative political structures in many stories, such as in the parable "The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas" (1973) and the utopian novel The Dispossessed (1974).
Le Guin's writing was enormously influential in the field of speculative fiction, and has been the subject of intense critical attention. She received numerous accolades, including eight Hugos, six Nebulas, and twenty-two Locus Awards, and in 2003 became the second woman honored as a Grand Master of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America. The U.S. Library of Congress named her a Living Legend in 2000, and in 2014, she won the National Book Foundation Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters. Le Guin influenced many other authors, including Booker Prize winner Salman Rushdie, David Mitchell, Neil Gaiman, and Iain Banks. After her death in 2018, critic John Clute wrote that Le Guin had "presided over American science fiction for nearly half a century", while author Michael Chabon referred to her as the "greatest American writer of her generation".

）
这套书本来就获奖繁多。2020.10.25将书籍版本也更换为2018因插图获得雨果奖的版本。
这部书前三册适合青少年，后三册不是写给青少年看的。如同教材一样，作者写给什么年龄段不是根据难度划分，而是根据内容划分。
适合孩子的教材内容可爱有趣，为了激发孩子自主学习的意愿，毕竟终生自主学习才是发展的先决条件。
适合大人的书籍相较于孩子的书籍大都更加真实残酷，没有那么多的美好，也多了很多成人的琐事。但思维成熟应该已明白世界本就不是非黑即白，所有事物本就纷繁复杂，即使再冰冷，也依然会有美好和希望。

那我是有了，读的一般，录的也一般
之前有过作者自己和另一个男的（名字不记得了读的太差没记）朗读的版本。
这一版是Rob Inglis朗读的。录的效果虽然没有128的好，但跟64差距不大，比32的强太多。至于朗读水平我觉得老先生没什么太多可挑剔的，指环王系列也是他朗读的。还有很多其他书目虽然没有指环王和地海那么有名气，也因为是Rob Inglis朗读的有人特意购买来听，只因为Rob Inglis。
有声书开篇都会说明书名，作者，朗诵者。什么版本可听一下开头介绍。光从比特率上看很难讲的。。。。。。

嗯，不能说差，但吸引不了我，更加吸引不了我家耳朵挑剔的男孩子。
听上去，就像悠悠的，淡淡的Stephe ...
怎么说呢，首先需要看小说内容定位。
哈利波特定位是儿童小说，而魔戒和地海不同，后两者更偏于成人。魔戒本身就没特别指定年龄，而地海作者更是明确表示不喜欢别人称她为优秀的“儿童”作家。魔戒和地海都更加优雅诗意一些，格局更大一些，那么换句话来讲，节奏就不像纯儿童小说那么快。并且魔戒作者是真实经历过战争洗礼的汉子，地海作者是研究道学的女子，地海就更文艺些，不会像少林拳那般酣畅淋漓。
朗读者的表现手法自然也需依据整体内容而定。男性，更何况还是孩子，自然是更喜欢像游戏里那样明显刺激一些的东西。
都是优秀的好书，都是优秀的朗读者。谈不上谁更优秀，只是在不同的阶段不同的性格或许某些更适合些。在我听来暂时只有Frank Muller真的打动过我，但也不能说Stephen Fry, Rob Inglis , Jim Dale不是优秀的朗读表演者，并且我也不觉得在有限的时间内听过的够多，或许还有更多更优秀的只是我还没发现而已。更喜欢Jim Dale的哈利波特的你，童心更重一些，这也很好啊。这个问题我不太想多做文字解释。这种感性的东西非要确定个正确答案争个唯一最好
