3.0 out of 5 stars The sudoku book, September 7, 2005

K. Thompson (Los Angeles, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Sudoku Book: An Introduction to Su Doku with 101 Puzzles (Paperback)

The book is too small. It is convenient to carry in your purse, but I prefer puzzles that are about 8" tall so there is room to sketch in numbers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Neat puzzle package - lot of fun, July 16, 2005

Philip Jenks (Boston) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Sudoku Book: An Introduction to Su Doku with 101 Puzzles (Paperback)

I bought this because I'd heard so much about Sudoku, and wondered what the fuss was. Heck - I guess one Sudoku book is much like another, and I can't tell you whether this is any better than the other books, but I can tell you that it's a totally compelling craze. I spent nearly the whole of a transatlantic flight with my nose in this book, and was utterly absorbed. It has a nice balance of Easy, Medium and Fiendish puzzles.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: The Sudoku Book: An Introduction to Su Doku with 101 Puzzles (Paperback)

Very convenient size for those of us who live on planes and trains. The 'tips' section does not go into much as detail as other puzzle books that discuss "twins", etc. Puzzles are ranked from easy to difficult. A nice first Sudoku book.
