I love a good riddle of the classic type. This book is chock full of riddles from classic sources, Tolkien re-treads, and originals. Collections such as this are not easy to find.
What keeps me from rating this higher is the lack of editing. There are numerous grammar errors (such as 'to' instead of 'too' - "My face is often to high to see"), wrong words ("I walk all day on are head"), and places where things just got messed up, such as this botched classic: "What walks on four legs, then two legs, then three on three legs?".
Overall, good content, but feels like a rush job which detracts from the overall enjoyment. Looking forward to a cleaned up second edition.
