Now she too is facing truths that will change her forever. And journeying also, to find him, is Raederle, a beautiful young woman he had been friends with when his world made sense. Learning to play a harp with three stars, learning to shapeshift, and to throw his mind across the world, he runs one step ahead of those who want him dead. Unless Morgan can answer the riddles of his destiny. Now that lost magic seems to be coming back to life, and the struggle will tear the realms apart. Why is his forehead marked with three stars? What is it about them that has drawn him into a world where unanswered riddles have turned deadly? Travelling through strange and enchanted lands, he meets Riddle Masters who guard what has survived of the realm's history, Land Rulers who feel the pulse of their lands in their minds and hearts, and ghosts of a lost magic thought to have vanished long ago. The books tell of Morgan, Prince of Hed, who leaves his peaceful island to find answers to the riddles that surround him. And even though I have no idea whatever happened to Cathy Webster, I still have the (very battered) copies of three books of this trilogy that my mother bought me the next weekend.

I was siting on her left, reading over her shoulder, this page: I'm taking part today, writing about a trilogy of books that I have loved for 29 years.ever since Cathy Webster brought the first of the series to school one day in ninth grade.
