The rest of the original three books grew increasingly =meh= as far as I was concerned, and when she revisited them some time later with Tehanu, I found myself really wishing she hadn't.

LeGuin managed to write the only Utopian society which I actually find believable -- I wouldn't actually want to live there, mind you, but I can believe in the possibility of its existence.)
