These challenges will require all the reader's wits to solve, but range from the easy to the brain-bending and are suitable for novice and veteran puzzlers alike. There is something here to suit every taste, including popular puzzles such as crosswords and sudoku, but also some surprising and intriguing types of puzzles that have been unearthed from centuries gone by.
