The story is full of adventure and suspense, and the themes of friendship and loyalty are especially resonant. Le Guin creates a rich, detailed world that is easy to get lost in. The writing is beautiful and the characters are well-developed. Ged is flown back to Gont, to wander the mountain, or, in an alternate ending, attends Arren's coronation in Havnor, and departs on the Lookfar, either way ending the saga of Ged. The Farthest Shore is an excellent fantasy novel that is sure to captivate readers of all ages. They are found by Kalessin, the eldest dragon, and flown back to Roke, where Arren is proclaimed king of Havnor. Ged and Arren are once again on the beach of Selidor, the end of worlds, exhausted and without food. Ged closes it using nearly the last of his strength. Ged and Arren confront Cob (a long conversation with unsophisticated New Age conceptions of death and life), and force him to take them to the open door. The mage is Cob, who is trapped between life and death, because he has opened the door between worlds. The dragon Orm Embar guides them to Selidor, where they find a mage, Cob, who attempts to kill them with an ancient staff, but is crushed by Orm Embar. Arren pledges to serve Ged, and the two go off in search of the problem, conversing with a drug addled wizard, Arren shanghaied as a galley slave, traveling the south reach, and staying with sea people, before going to speak with dragons.
Ged and the others had heard of other places on the periphery of the archipelago where similar things were rumored. Arren is the son of the prince of Enlad, comes to Roke to warn the wizards that something has caused wizards in his land to forget their spells and lose power.
