I should clarify: if you don't mind Young Adult, _The Tombs of Atuan_
(Earthsea #2) is really magnificent.
I thought for a long time after reading _The Amber Spyglass_ that,
"Hey, Phil: Ursula called. She wants _The Farthest Shore_ back," but
after re-reading _The Farthest Shore_ it's actually, "Hey, Phil and
Ursula: Rilke called. He wants the Tenth Elegy back."
