• How did the universe begin, and how will it end?  • What happens to us when we die? • Is there intelligent life elsewhere in our galaxy and beyond? • Do unknown creatures still live in the wild and unexplored regions of the world? • Who wrote the indecipherable Voynich manuscript? • What happened to the three lighthouse keepers who vanished in the Outer Hebrides in 1900?  These are just a few of the tantalising questions addressed in ENIGMAS. Written in a clear, informative and entertaining style, this book presents some of the most intriguing, puzzling and just plain terrifying of the world’s many unfathomable mysteries. Each self-contained chapter deals with a particular mystery that has caused wonder, excitement or fear to all who have pondered it. From unexplained phenomena and bizarre events to enigmatic people and legendary places, these pages contain a wealth of intriguing information about our vast and mysterious universe.
