The Chicago Tribune Sundays are my favorite crossword puzzle. They are interesting, moderate difficulty, and fun. There is a theme to each puzzle. Once you figure out just what's up with the theme, it's fairly easy to get the longer answers. This collection of 250 puzzles is a great deal. I've paid about the same for a book of 50 of these.
