Al last, the first one of this series that doesn't have a LotR feeling!

Very slow to start. I listened to it on CD and was on 11 or 12 out of 15 before it really perked my interest. That said you probably need to read it to complete the series on the way to number four.

Loved it. It was from Hem's point of view instead of Maerad's which was different from all the others in the series.

I just don't like Hem as much and got bored with all the war stuff.

I enjoyed Hem’s journey more than Maerad’s in The Riddle, mainly because it has less travelling scenes and descriptions-those usually bores me
