Description

Count down to Christmas one puzzle at a time.

The Advent Puzzle Book gives you a fresh double-page spread for every day from 1 to 25 December. Each day has its own festive theme, from St Nicholas and Victorian Christmas to the winter solstice, polar explorers, European Christmas markets and the history of the cracker. Each spread brings three puzzles to solve: a crossword on the left, and a word search and a sudoku on the right.

25 hard general-knowledge crosswords: themed clues to test your knowledge of history, music, literature, science and festive tradition.
25 advanced word searches: sixteen words hidden in a 16×16 grid, running in all eight directions, forwards and backwards.
25 sudoku: rated Hard for days 1–10 and Fiendish for days 11–25, each computer-checked to have exactly one solution.
An Advent tracker to tick off each day’s puzzles as you go.
A how-to-play guide and full answers at the back of the book.

Whether you open a new spread each morning or save them up for a long winter evening, it’s the perfect companion to the festive season, and an ideal gift for crossword fans, sudoku solvers and anyone who loves a Christmas challenge.
