Book recommendations

For more brain-teasers with a twist, I recommend the map-centric Ordnance Survey Puzzle Book and the lateral thinking-sparking GCHQ Puzzle Book.

For absolutely astonishing tales of mutiny, shipwreck and survival, Batavia’s Graveyard by Mike Dash and The Wager by David Grann cover two of the most riveting true stories you’ve probably never heard of.
