When magic is shaped from pain, who would be a sorcerer? 

Attics hide many things of the past.  There Jebbin finds a spell book and discovers he has the rare talent of magic. But nothing is free and spells are created from pain.  Jebbin winces, but the pain is not yet so important.  For a country lad, the world seems to beckon with wonders. That naivety leads to jail where he meets a sinister magician prepared to mortify his own flesh for power.

Jebbin is joined by a blunt wrestler and a bard as adept at reading people as at crafting songs.  In a vibrant world of intrigue and danger, he needs all his wits and magic to decipher the Riddle of the Seer amid the teeming colours of Lana Fair.  Finally, he must learn the true Power of Pain

Exciting, inventive and occasionally hilarious, the Riddle of the Seer blends magic and realism in a classic quest.
