I enjoyed doing the Sudoku puzzles and like how they were easy to hard in a 5 page cycle. Less boring that way. What I didn't like were the Nonograms as the resulting pictures were not very good, and the Cross Sums as 2 of the puzzles had mistakes in them.

This review is from: Penguin Sudoku 2006: A Year's Supply of Sudokus and Some Nonograms and Cross Sums, the Fiendish New Japanese Puzzles (Paperback)

Penguin has published a doozer here.It gives you a puzzle to do for every day of the year.They come in 5 levels of difficulty,so that should give something for everybody.These puzzles were made by David Bodycombe who happens to be the fellow who has been creating various types of puzzles for years.
Just for a little change of pace, there are also included 10 pages of Nonograms,where grids are blocked in to make pictures.If you're not mad at this point ,there are 10 pages of Cross Sums that may just complete the job.
There is only the briefest of instructions or tips,so maybe this should not be the first Sudoku book one starts off with.Check out some of my other reviews,partically the other one I wrote today.
Good Sudokuing !!
