About

Many of today's riddles and puzzles are dumbed-down, easy to solve and boring. But we all love the way that riddles and puzzles are solved in tales like Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings and King Arthur.

Like Harry, Frodo and Merlin we also live in a curious world where the ability to creatively solve problems is essential for success.

'Riddles and Puzzles' includes 60 challenging, curious and ingenious problems set in medieval times from the much loved classic 'Canterbury Puzzles (and other cursious problems) by Henry Ernest Dudeney.

Praise for 'The Canterbury Puzzles'

"For the long winter evenings Mr. Dudeney's book of puzzledom is to be recommended. Mr. Dudeney has made a study of every kind of puzzle there is ... he supplies you with every kind of brain-twister."—The Daily Chronicle.

"Will enjoy the entertainment provided ... ingenious and witty."—The Guardian.

"Extremely ingenious book, which abounds in problems that will keep the reader busy for hours—until in despair he turns to the answers at the end."—Manchester Guardian.

You can ponder the puzzles on your own while waiting for the bus, having a coffee or if you find your mind wandering at work (but of course you'd never do that... lol). If after some consideration and time you are unable to solve the puzzle, you can scroll down and the answer is revealed. No cheating please! We'll be watching. :P
