Description

The Ministry of Quizzes is the must-buy gift book for quiz solvers and puzzlers, from David Gentle, author of On the Tip of My Tongue. Perfect for fans of The GCHQ Puzzle Book, Bletchley Park Brainteasers, and The Ordnance Survey Puzzle Book. Apparently, deep in the heart of Whitehall, up an unnoticeable side road, is an unassuming office block. Unremarkable on the outside, inside it buzzes and bustles with activity. Civil servants hard at work, researching, compiling, cross-checking. Facts and trivia, questions and puzzles. Allegedly, this is the Ministry of Quizzes. The small but essential government department is the national authority on all matters relating to quizzes, puzzles, and general knowledge trivia. Now for the first time, their work can be revealed. The Ministry of Quizzes features an ingenious and irresistible mixture of over 200 quizzes and puzzles to be played solo or with family and friends. It contains everything, in fact, that you would expect from a government department dedicated to the field.
