Suggestions for books about mages? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Hi!

I'm looking for books about mages, wizards and witches in which the magic itself is a central part of the story and not just there so the MC can slam a fireball into the face of his foes.
Maybe the magic has a will of its own or the MC is trying to 'restore' it from some kind of 'disease' or something else.

The Earthsea books match your description exactly. Spooky.
