h2g2 Hidden Words Quiz: Spot the Novel 2
Created | Updated Mar 20, 2011
Despite popular request, here's another helping of hidden word puzzle. The last literary-themed one seems to have kept you all quiet (did anyone have a go?) If you haven't seen one of these before, then you'll need some instructions to follow. I shall say this only once...
Instructions
Below, you'll find two lists. In the first list you need to spot the titles of classic novels. Well, I say classic - a few of them are 'modern classics'. In the second list you need to find the surnames of their authors. In each case these are hidden within the titles of h2g2 Edited Guide Entries.
The length of the hidden title/author is shown in brackets, so, for example, if an entry in the first list was...
...then the hidden novel would be "Lolita". The letters appear in order within the title:
gaLlipOLI - The bAttle
This novel's author would appear somewhere in in the second list; for example it could be in the entry:
Lord Byron - Mad, Bad, and Dangerous to Know: Live Fast, Die Young (7)
...which contains the author (Vladimir) "Nabokov":
lord byroN - mAd, Bad, and dangerOus to KnOw: liVe fast, die young
Before You Start
There are 20 novels and associated authors to find. Some novel titles contain more than one word. I've ignored spaces, capitalisation and punctuation. Finally, the lists are scrambled, so N1 isn't necessarily the novel written by author A1.
Good luck!
