'I'm just mad about the Mystery Agency, and even madder about Henry Lewis. Like, it makes me actually mad how wonderfully talented he is at puzzle creation and storytelling. This book is an utter delight, one that should be in the collection of any sharp thinker. I hated how much I loved it. Can't recommend it enough.'

-- Neil Patrick Harris, puzzle-master and award-winning actor

A great story with really challenging problems to solve on every page. The illustrations are amazing too and really add to it! We loved it. Perfect for a present for a teen or for someone who may be going on a long journey or anyone that likes a mystery to solve. We were hooked! Highly recommend x

I am so sad I have come to the end of this book and its marvellous puzzles and activities. It was so much fun to work through, challenging but achievable. It was completely addictive and every spare moment I had I would dip into it for a crime-solving puzzle fix. My daughter hasn't seen me in a week but that's ok because I figured out whodunnit.Please please bring out a new one soon! I need to feed the addiction you've created...

Really enjoyed this - a fun story and interesting puzzles kept me engaged. The system of the QR codes for some puzzles was great (if a bit temperamental at times - no issue as the book has solutions too) and each solution was tough enough to keep me busy for a couple of minutes before I moved on.Easily a good two to three hours of fun in here, an absolute no brainer. Goes fantastically well with the other Mystery Agency games!

I've played one of the Mistery Agency puzzles before and it still is one of my favourites space room in a box experiences. I bought this book out of that experience and I have to say it has been a cool story and I've had a couple of afternoons of good fun with it. The production is great, the writing is a lot better than I anticipated, and while all puzzles are not brilliant there is a couple of them that are great and some are challenging. The product as a whole I think is worth it. I don't put 5 stars because of the last puzzle of the game, which without going into spoilers, it's a shame they went that route compared to the rest of the puzzles of the book and it did sour an otherwise cool conclusion. In any case if they release a second book I'll be definitely be looking for it.

Wow wow wow, I have literally just finished this book and had to come and review it straight away! I’ve never found a book like this before and not sure I will again.The artwork is stunning all the way through, the hardback cover is gorgeous with a textured feel giving it a high-quality finish, and the story is so clever!!! It tricked me a few times and I missed the odd clue but luckily there are hints and the solutions in the back. The QR codes are also a clever way to keep you on your toes too, not letting you carry on with this story until you get it right, or else you may miss an important aspect that only shows up on your phone once you’ve got the correct answer.Genuinely think this is one of the smartest books I’ve found/read/completed ever!!! If you like a mystery book, game, movie etc, and want to immerse yourself into and interactive one, this is going to be right up your street :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic....I've thoroughly enjoyed this!

SUCH good fun.Puzzles range from 'oh, that was easy'to 'I have no idea where to start'.It felt really odd to tear pages out of and write on pages of the book but that's all part of the fun. I have finally used a notepad I've had for years and it's full of workings out and maths and little side notes. Loads of fun. I do a few pages per night.

I have tried similar books as I like puzzle. However, this is (by far) the best one. I am a fan of H. Lewis's games and this is not too difficult and not to easy. There are several puzzles and very different from one another.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Mystery Book

A.W. · 18 April 2024

This book is perfect for anyone interested in puzzles, escape rooms or solving mysteries. Its looks great and is presented well. The puzzles themselves are presented really nicely well, not always in a way you’d expect which is refreshing. To say anymore would possibly give away too much but is up there with the very best in its genre.

Best puzzle book!!

My husband and I have done many books of this nature, and this is by far our favourite one. Usually story lines are secondary and rather boring, but this one was straightforward, interesting and crucial to solving the mystery. There is just the right amount of difficulty; none of the answers were so far fetched that they seemed unreasonable, yet not simple enough to solve at first glance (or even second). We spent several hours of enjoyable time, over multiple nights, working our way through this book and were actually sad when it came to an end! It definitely left us wanting more, so I am hopeful this author has a second book coming!

Great Puzzle Book!

This book is gorgeous! Excellent quality. Even love the feel of the cover. The puzzles are fun and have different levels of difficulty. I really hope there will be more cases to solve in the near future.

Great fun, full of puzzles and hidden messages.

A fun and engaging mystery

K.J. · 27 May 2024

The book is great quality and has nice cutout pages to track. The story is interesting, and the puzzles have good variety and challenge.I ended up scribbling puzzle solutions directly on the pages, so I wouldn't consider this loanable or regiftable.
