1.0 out of 5 stars Don't Waste your Money, July 10, 2007

J. W. Colvin - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Random House Webster's Crossword Puzzle Dictionary, 4th Edition (Paperback)

Being an avid crossword puzzle fan, I have a lot of puzzle dictionaries. The description sounded like this one would be a "must have" addition. I have been so very disappointed. Most anything I look for is not in there. The very best continues to be "The New Comprehensive A-Z Crossword Dictionary". Happy puzzling WITHOUT this one - you'll waste your money.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Useful Reference for a Crossword Fan, September 5, 2009

Francis H. Walker - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Random House Webster's Crossword Puzzle Dictionary, 4th Edition (Paperback)

As a crossword solver for almost sixty years I find the Random House Crossword Dictionary vey useful in particular as a resource pertaining to questions about popular culture such as the cast of an old TV show or movie. This is not available in the NY Times Crossword Dictionary for example. The Random House Dictionary also contains lists of characters in well-known novels. In short it is a valuable reference for a crossword fan and in particuloar for those who work puzzles at the expert level.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Random House Webster's Crossword Puzzle Dictionary, 4th Edition (Paperback)

This is, beyond a doubt, THE most authoritative reference guide for crosswords...Evah! According to the Random House Puzzle Meter, we do "Medium" level puzzles (no easy feat, this) and this book is a tremendous help for those of us who function as mediums. We even remember half the stuff we look up! OK. Maybe a quarter because we keep going back for more...
We've tried other references and really, nothing compares.
