2.0 out of 5 stars Maybe a little too cryptic?, November 18, 2001
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Random House Cryptic Crosswords, Volume 2 (RH Crosswords) (Paperback)
People's tastes vary. Speaking only for myself, I like cryptic crosswords that are solved with the standard rules, as opposed to cryptics featuring specially invented rules (e.g., the answers are to be filled in backward, or with certain letters displaced or omitted, or with parts of words exchanged for parts of other words elsewhere in the grid). At least half the puzzles in this collection are oddball specimens of this type. If you're bored with regular cryptics and want a greater challenge, you'll love this book. If you prefer your cryptics "straight," there are better choices.
