(16 reviews)

These historical fiction puzzle stories for readers aged 7+ are just 48 pages each and fully illustrated, but we can guarantee they will keep young readers occupied for hours at a time! 

Each book focuses on a different time or place in ancient history, whether that be ancient Egyptians, Romans or Greeks! Within each story, the reader must help the characters from that time to solve mysteries, decode hieroglyphic, Latin or Ancient Greek messages, mazes, logic puzzles and more.

The books are written by Andy Seed, award-winning author of Silly Book of Side-Splitting Stuff, in consultation with experts at the British Museum, and illustrated in full colour by James Weston Lewis.
