<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Give your brain a workout with 100 puzzles from Chambers, the most crossword-friendly dictionary in the world</b> <p/>Put your feet up and escape from it all with <i>The Chambers Book of Cryptic Crosswords</i> featuring a 'ton' of cryptic challenges to give your brain a workout. <p/>In each puzzle there are one or two easy clues to provide a way in, and all the solutions, bar the odd exception, can be found in the Chambers Dictionary. No specialist knowledge is required: if you have a good grasp of the English language and an interest in words, you should be able to crack the clues. <p/>This collection is designed to provide a fair challenge for seasoned experts, but also give 'average solvers' a decent chance of completing the puzzles. <p/>Entertaining, fun and challenging enough to tax even the most seasoned crossword aficionado, you'll need quick wits to go head-to-head with Chambers.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Eddie James</b> has been setting crossword puzzles 'since he was a lad' many years ago. Now he has the help of his wife, Jo, and together they create themed puzzles for a whole range of British publications, such as Geographical, BBC History and BBC Countryfile magazines. Eddie's cryptic crosswords include the monthly one on Chambers web site, and those published by the <i>Guardian</i> under the pseudonym 'Brummie'. He also sets for <i>Private Eye</i> as 'Cyclops'; under this persona, his clues are somewhat risquÃ(c) and irreverent, reflecting the magazine's tone.
