The Hall of Riddles: The Alchemancer, #0

By Scott Marlowe

A timeless guardian. An unsolvable riddle. An eternity spent trapped.

 

When Master Elsanar sends Aaron into the Underkeep to retrieve a special instrument, Aaron never suspected he'd wind up trapped in a secret dwarven treasure hall. Good thing Shanna is there to keep him company while they wait to die of thirst, hunger, or worse.

 

Their fortunes change when the treasure room's guardian makes them a deal: solve his riddles, and he'll set them free. Now, they only need to figure out a series of riddles no one has ever solved before a second guardian—one who doesn't negotiate—comes to end their lives.
