Richie - I assume the Exeter book referred to is the one which is one of the major sources of Anglo-Saxon literature. It's the largest of the sources and gets the name from the cathedral of its location.

There's a wikipedia article: Anglo Saxon riddles and you can find the riddles in Old English with a modern translation here: Anglo Saxon Riddles Of The Exeter Book.
