I've not read the books, but I did not care for the series. I only got 2 episodes in.
I wish someone would make a good high budget Earthsea series.
The books good but not great. Cool ideas but the writing could be better. My friend read a lot more of them than I did and after the original author died another guy picked up where he left off and those ones are apparently better.
You should just read the Sword of Truth series by Terry Goodkind though. Disney tried to make a TV series about it and they fucked it up real bad.
Edit: wow people are really offended by my opinions of some fantasy novels. Sorry, everyone.
I loved the sword of truth series, actually read it througg because of the tv show. It was not good.
A fun power fantasy, but it just got more and more formulaic and preachy over time.
The crazy thing is a huge chunk of the first book was a BDSM femdom fantasy, with both hard and soft dommes represented, and the series got less subtle after that.
