The Middle-earth Puzzle Collection: Riddles & Enigmas Inspired by Tolkien's World

by Tim Dedopulos

J.R.R. Tolkien was a master of riddles and wordplay—and fans of his towering masterpiece will enjoy this stunning journey through Middle-earth, where curiosities and stimulating puzzles await them at every turn. Gorgeously illustrated, and rich in references to the history, lore, land, and inhabitants of Tolkien's elaborately constructed world, this collection enchants even as it calls for strong solving skills and keen logic.   
 
And, like the Fellowship’s quest, the enigmas here become increasingly tricky, thrilling, and challenging as they move from the relative safety of Book One to the dangerous adventures of Book Three.

[Rianna *Hermione* B · Rating 4 out of 5]

It has interesting riddles and logic puzzles with the LotR setting.

[Jitka · Rating 4 out of 5]

The riddles are great! 👍👍👍 I also love the logical puzzles but the mathematical ones were overly complicated and not explained well enough (not even the solutions) for me 😂😂😂 and then maybe I am just stupid 😅👍🙈

Skvělá kniha pro všechny, kteří mají rádi hádanky a Svět Středozemě.
Pokud nemáte Tolkienovi knihy v malíku stejně si můžete knihu pořídit, není to žádný znalostní kvíz z jeho díla. Stačí zapojit mozkové závity a pořádně přemýšlet. S knihou je zábava na dlouhou dobu.

Los acertijos fueron bastante divertidos y los disfruté mucho, es un buen libro para jugar con un amigo 😀

[Tim Robinson · Rating 4 out of 5]

The puzzles are nothing special, but the riddles are good. Of course, the danger with riddles is there can sometimes be multiple solutions.
