I've ordered two puzzle books from Nathan Haselbauer and can categorically state that his books are the best!
The Mammoth Book of IQ Puzzles is a great collection of puzzles of all kinds. It's both fun and maddening to figure out - or TRY to figure out, in many cases - the variety of puzzles you'll find in this book.
I especially liked the difficulty rating of each puzzle; readers can target the difficulty level they like and gain great satisfaction as they solve more and more difficult puzzles.
Also pleasing is the wide variety of puzzles in this book. Whether you enjoy math, logic, or word puzzles the most, you'll find something here to challenge you and to enjoy.
As a member too of Mr. Haselbauer's International High IQ Society, I can confirm that this book is a great extension of the original puzzles you'll find on the Society website. If you've enjoyed this book, please visit the group at www.highiqsociety.org and try your hand at the puzzles there; perhaps you'll become a member!
