2023 book 147

 Patricia McKillip’s The Riddle-Master of Hed

I didn’t love this the first time I read it, but I never did read the sequels and I’m running out of unread McKillip books! So I made my way through this again and still found it fairly impenetrable. It’s about a young prince from farming country who has a great destiny, but he’s reluctant to accept it, mainly bc a lot of people are trying to kill him. He has magical adventures and learns cool stuff and eventually journeys to his destination, but it’s all very slow and the end is a confusing cliffhanger. I’m hoping the sequels will be more up my alley.
