Review Detail

Reader reviewed by Mairi

Maerad has accepted her identity as Elednor, the Fire Lily, and, in doing so, agreed to seek the Treesong in the land of the Nameless one. She travels northward, through the lands from which her father came, and eventually, with the help of her newfound relatives, arrives at the palace of her greatest enemy.

As soon as I bought The Naming, I found myself looking soulfully at The Riddle as it sat on the bookstore shelf, but it was not cheap- this book contains several appendices, all fascinating. When my grandmother gave me a copy of it for Christmas the appendices were the first part I read.

In the pages of The Riddle all the emotions of nature ae conveyed in a miraculous way, and reading it is like coming home.
