Hey WRITERS CODE readers!

The team decided to add this bit to the magazine to engage with you, and that's not all! To reward your efforts in solving our riddles, the reader who solves the most will have the pleasure of either a spotlight interview or a book review in our next issue.

To kick this off, whoever solves the most will have their book reviewed by a member of our Pen Pushing Posse team and their book review will be posted in our next issue of the Writers Code.

Note: Repeat answers do not count. If someone already solved a riddle, solve another one. The winner will be announced a month from the publication of this issue.

Let's get down to it!

Grinds hard stones to meal;
Slays king, ruins town,
And beats mountain down."
