A beautiful Medieval replica
sword will be sent or otherwize presented to the reader who discovers
its name within the pages of Tasmanian Quest, using the riddles. If
you uncover the name by assembling the clues from the book, send the name to us along with
a couple of notes on how you used the book to find it, and we will contact you immediately.
The sword and its handsome scabbard were hand crafted
by Ken Bradford at Tasmania's Bismarck Armoury. Marreena's magic flounder, a sprig of King's Holly
and the dread dragon, adorn the sword's hilt. If you want a response to a wrong answer, please
send a self-addressed envelope along with money
for postage.
Steve and Marion are not at liberty to give hints
or confirm progress. But we do promise that this one
is considerably less difficult and convoluted
than our last Tasmanian Tiger buried treasure
hunt. |

The gold tiger treasure from Tasmanian Tiger was unearthed
in 1999. Now another puzzle appears in the same, but slightly revised book!
Find the name of the man in the black hat who appears in the story and claim a beautifully
crafted bronze Tasmanian tiger. One of the riddles wrapped around each illustration
is important.
Steve and Marion are not at liberty to give hints or confirm
progress.
The new bronze tiger is by sculptor, Eddie Wentorf. The original treasure was a an 18ct gold Tasmanain
tiger crafted by Alex Fried in Tasmania and designed by Marion Isham.
After nearly four years buried in the earth, it was discovered by
a clever sleuth who spent 3 weeks with a copy of Tiger borrowed from the
library.
