Synopsis "Worlds of Exile and Illusion: Rocannon'S World, Planet of Exile, City of Illusions (S. F. Masterworks)"

From the multi-award-winning author of The Left Hand of Darkness and the Earthsea sequence comes this single-volume omnibus of the first three Hainish novels.Intergalactic war reaches Fomalhaut II in Rocannon's World.Born out of season, a precocious young girl visits the alien city of the farborns and the false-men in Planet of Exile.In City of Illusions a stranger wandering in the forest people's woods is found and his health restored; now the fate of two worlds rests in this stranger's hands . . . The three novels contained in this volume are the books that launched Ursula K. Le Guin's glittering career, and are set in the same universe as her Hugo and Nebula Award-winning classics The Left Hand of Darkness and The Dispossessed.

Ursula Kroeber Le Guin (1929 - 2018) cultivó tanto la narrativa, en forma de novela y cuento, como la poesía y la crítica. Su amplia obra ha merecido múltiples galardones, entre los que destacan el National Book Award, el American Book Award y numerosos premios Hugo, Nebula, Jupiter y Locus.

En 1991 recibió el Harold D. Vursell Memorial Award, otorgado por la American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters, y en 2001, el SF Hall of Fame a toda su trayectoria. En el otro viento, la última novela de Terramar incluida en el volumen Historias de Terramar, recibió en 2002 el Premio World Fantasy. En 2003 fue elegida Gran Maestro por la SFWA, la asociación norteamericana de escritores de ciencia ficción.

Ella misma se describía como una persona «feminista, conservacionista, ecologista, norteamericana, apasionadamente comprometida con la literatura, paisaje y vida de la Costa Oeste».
