About this book

Most puzzle books aimed at this age are either recycled kid books with a darker cover or adult books with the fun sanded off. This one is calibrated for a teenager: the puzzles are hard enough to be worth finishing and the pages do not look like they belong to a seven year old.

Large 8 x 10 inch paperback with one puzzle per page, printed clean on bright white paper with room to work. No cartoon animals, no baby colors. Full answer key in the back.

What's inside

Letter-substitution puzzles that decode into quotes, proverbs and one-liners worth reading once you crack them
A technique page on frequency analysis, one-letter words and common double letters - the same reasoning real codebreakers use
Starter letters given on the earlier puzzles, then taken away
Every cipher is solvable by logic alone, no guessing and no outside knowledge required
Clean, well-spaced code lines with room to pencil letters above them
Full answers in the back
