Diana Sudyka.
Profiles of the Society's members, pull-quotes, "archival material," and page after page of Benedict Society–themed brainteasers mingle in this challenging but rewarding volume. Red circles on nearly every page contain clues to a final puzzle, and a hint section in the back will nudge strugglers. Sudyka's copious illustrations add a quirky flavor.
