Morgon had disappeared some said he was dead, although no one knew for sure, and Raederle felt that she’d waited long enough. And because of that encounter, Morgon was forced to confront the most puzzling riddle of all: the harp and the sword with stars that matched those on his face. But before Morgon could marry her, he met the High One’s harpist – a man whose music and mystery drew him inexplicably. The prize was the hand of beautiful Raederle of An. Then, scarcely knowing why, he staked his life on a bizarre riddle-game – and won. Morgon found the complex lore fascinating, and grew so adept at riddlery that he became Caithnard’s youngest master. At the College at Caithnard, men studied the riddles left behind by wizards who’d vanished long ago, hoping to unravel the secrets of the past. ![]() RIDDLE OF STARS is a spell-binding trilogy in one volume, the story of human beings who must face and come to grips with awesome powers and timeless mysteries. And if he hadn’t loved harping and riddlery, he might have remained a farmer all his life.īut Morgon had been born with three stars on his brow, and no one in the High One’s realm knew why… He became one with his rural homeland, his heart and senses bound to its every living creature.
