Synopsis
It's big. It's challenging. It's mind-bending fun! This enormous collection (400 pages!) of logic puzzles will keep super solvers occupied for hours. That's because each conundrum is a legend in its own time, perfectly constructed to perplex and mystify. Some are stories that provide only slight information to guide you; others resemble a poker game, played in settings ranging from Vegas to Monte Carlo. Still more mislead you with false statements. They're entertaining and a great way to develop your powers of deduction and reasoning!
