'Toxic Panda' is more than an extraordinary novel; it is a treasure map that leads readers across Asia to a series of cash prizes without having to leave the comfort of their armchairs. The first person to solve each chapter wins US dollar prize money.
The story's plot sees Shannon Dublin's ordinary life in Thailand shattered when she is chosen by her vicar to undertake a death-defying journey across Asia. Soon she is being hunted by an underworld gang, who have a coffin with her name carved on its lid and who want her body. Can Shannon think out of the box and escape?
Each chapter of this book contains a word- or number-based puzzle and the solutions from the early chapters will help solve the later conundrums.
it reminded me of climbing Everest
The first question I had was why?
But it caught my attention and I came to see it as the ultimate challenge - like climbing Everest without leaving the warmth of my chair.
Why read it - because it exists - and it is funny.

Loved it!
The puzzles inside the book are a real challenge, but having no E's makes this book a work of art, congratulations to the Author.
