Luscious Books' puzzle maker, Suzanne High, has been busy making new puzzles - not just for her forthcoming Quick Crossword book but also being a logic puzzle consultant to for Tim Peake's latest book. This is what she has to say: "Writing puzzle books has brought me as close as I’m ever going to get to an adventure in space. Soon after the publication of my latest puzzle book, 50 Logic Puzzles, I was contacted by Ben Brusey, Editorial Director at Penguin Random House, and asked to act as a logic puzzle consultant for Tim Peake’s new book The Astronaut Selection Test Book (Century). |
"As you know, Tim Peake is a celebrated European Space Agency astronaut and I was delighted to play a small part in the production of the book. The Astronaut Selection Test Book is an entertaining mix of puzzles and commentary by Tim on his own experiences of the selection process, and a great read for anyone – of any age – who has ever wondered if they have what it takes to be an astronaut. What’s more, the royalties from the book will be donated to the Prince’s Trust charity.
"It was wonderful to be part of this project. If I hadn’t had my puzzle books out there, I would never have had this exciting opportunity. Logical, really!"
