Shape changers try to kill him, strangers befriend him, and Morgon goes through a shipwreck, a blizzard, a bout with amnesia, and adventures with a magic harp before accepting the call and setting out to learn his fate from the High One. For most of this Morgon, an island Prince who (though he won highest honors at riddle school) 's also a simple farmer and wants only to continue in that life, resists the call to some unknown grand destiny that seems to be his by virtue of a mark of three stars on his forehead. This is the first book in a trilogy, and unlike most such volumes which at least appear to be complete in themselves, it ends with a cliffhanger when Morgon, the young hero, discovers that the benign, all-governing High One he's been seeking, the evil destroyer of ancient legend, and the master who taught him at riddle school are one and the same.
