The Reading List

Not every file in this office is a case. Some are notes from the wider world of puzzles: what else is worth your evenings, what the good books do that the bad ones do not, and where a reader who has finished one thing should go next.

The recommendations here are honest about their own bias. Murdcrypt appears in them where it belongs and nowhere it does not, because a roundup that puts its own book first teaches you nothing about the rest of the shelf.
