1.0 out of 5 stars if this is black belt ..., January 3, 2006

Theodore Sung (Needham, MA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Black Belt Sudoku (Martial Arts Sudoku) (Paperback)

Don't be fooled by the title - if you are looking for challenging Sudoku puzzles, this is not the book for you.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not really Black Belt..., November 5, 2005

Sudoku Junkie (SF, CA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Black Belt Sudoku (Martial Arts Sudoku) (Paperback)

..but more of a medium gray. If you are looking for "Fiendish" or "Tough" puzzles, you will be bored here.

1.0 out of 5 stars WAY too easy, July 6, 2006

Jason Harland - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Black Belt Sudoku (Martial Arts Sudoku) (Paperback)

Apparently ANYONE can get a black belt if this book is any indication. The 21st puzzle I solved completely by inspection, didn't write ANY number possibilities in at all, which is totally unacceptable for an allegedly hard level sudoku book. If you enjoy challenging sudoku puzzles skip over this book. The Second Degree Brown Belt book was more challenging, though by far my favorite Sudoku book to date is "Sudoku Genius" by Tom Sheldon ISBN 0-452-28750-2.

1.0 out of 5 stars What a disappointment
I've been working on bringing my game to the advanced level and thought I could "grow" into this book if it was too tough. I shouldn't have worried. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Black Belt fits great!
Black Belt Sudoku was just as advertized. Great shape! Has no flaws nor was not written in. Would go here again

1.0 out of 5 stars Not the real McCoy
At best this is novice level. To claim that the puzzles "will provide a sly, absorbing test for even the best most proficient experts" is misleading in the extreme. Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Really easy puzzles - title is misleading
I agree with other reviewers, these are really simple puzzles. I have just started doing puzzles from a weekly newspaper,
and these are far simpler than their "medium". Read more

2.0 out of 5 stars Skip this one
This book is much easier than brown belt, level 3. Skip it and go to black belt, level 2.

All things relative, of course, but this hardly earns the "black belt" moniker, it's at the level of Will Shorts' "Moderate" puzzles. Read more

Maybe I shouldn't have expected much for $6.95. When something advances itself as "Super-Tough," you'd think the hardest puzzle might take more than 5 minutes. Read more
