Because Christopher Manson is a frigging genius and I want to hug him and slap him in the face for all the frustration he's brought me at the same time. And, to make things harder, if that's possible, these clues do not stand alone. I mean each clue having so many possible meanings that there's no way to know which one is right. I mean not even being sure what clues to trust. I mean not knowing what is a clue or even noticing all of them. I mean an impossible web of clues that would take hours to completely decipher. These clues are not the "Blue's Clues" that can be figured out in a second. Both of those aspects are made all the more interesting by the clues. The illustrations are beautiful and mesmerizing.

Here's what Bounford has to say about it: "It symbolizes the road to peace, the most challenging walk of all." When you reach the center of the actual Peace Maze, you'll find a bell you can ring-it's said to be one of the most frequently rung bells in Ireland. The original version is a shrubbery maze planted in Castlewellan, Northern Ireland. Among the possibilities are the Turtle Labyrinth (mentioned earlier) and the "Mandala Maze." But Bounford believes the "Peace Maze" takes the prize, and it's pictured above. If that's true, the most challenging mazes should bring about the greatest joy, right? We asked Bounford to point out the most challenging maze in her book. They require you to engage both the logical and creative sides of your brain-an act that can lead to meditative joy, she says. For example, "Arthur Deacon's Turtle Labyrinth" (on pages 45 and 46 in the book) challenges you to use your finger to traverse a circuitous route "using one uninterrupted line," or you could be "devoured by a ghost." "Mazes are for those who want to tune in to their innate sense of curiosity, to meditate, learn, and reconnect with their sense of fun," Bounford tells Reader's Digest. Bounford lists the most fascinating mazes on the planet, whether they're found in books, on sand, in mosaics, or in fields and gardens. Check out some of the world's most incredible mazes.
