Book Description

December 12, 2002 Crossword
You can experience a rigorous mental workout with just a lift of the pen and these 140 challenging crossword puzzles. Feel the burn as you tackle these tough crosswords created by renowned puzzle constructors. While some clues test your recall of historical knowledge (6-letter word for "Revolutionary rider"?-Revere) and vivid vocabulary (8-letter word for "jumble"?-pastiche), others challenge you with themes, from "tongue twisters" to "con men" to "Charles Dickens." There's even a retro selection of puzzles dating back to the 50s and 60s to put you through your pop culture paces (Actress Barrymore? Ethel, not Drew). In addition to standard 15 x 15 square crosswords, this collection includes unique 17 x 17 square designs to vary your workout for maximum brain building.

5.0 out of 5 stars Much Fun, August 23, 2003
This review is from: Crosswords for a Super Brain Workout (Plastic Comb)
This collection comes from the Attaché magazine, the US Airways magazine. The feature puzzles by some of the top constructors in current production. They were attracted by the unusual format of 17 squares per side. They challenge using foreign language, pop culture, and witty clues. Have fun with these and get a super brain workout!

One odd thing is that the solutions are not in the same sequence as the puzzles. This is minor and easily resolved.

In the 2nd Section are the Pop Culture Puzzles.
