The Riddle Master of Club Hed is a light but fun read by McKillip, a most talented writer. The book is the first in a series about a riddle-master travels throughout the kingdom. Wizards have vanished from the world and all knowledge is found in riddles if one can but understand them. A prince of the farmers of Hed, Morgan, is a master at understanding riddles. Betting his life on this talent, he hopes to win a crown from the deceased Lord of Aum. However, other forces threaten his efforts. His friends are replaced by shape changers and he finds himself fleeing while trying to solve the strangest riddle of all - why does he have three stars on his forehead.

Great fantasy adventure, first in the Riddlemaster Trilogy. Morgon, Prince of the peace-loving kingdom of Hed, undertakes a dangerous journey to faraway Erlenstar Mountain to learn the meaning of the three stars that are on his forehead. As he journeys, he encounters mythical creatures and evil beings who wish to kill him. Great beginning to the trilogy, looking forward to reading the second book in the trilogy!
