I Like This One a Lot!,

This review is from: The Washington Post Sunday Crossword Puzzles, Volume 15 (Spiral-bound)
I guess you would have to say I'm a New York Times crossword puzzle fanatic. But because this book was edited by Fred Piscop, known to me from his occasional puzzles at the Times, I decided to give a couple volumes of this series a try. Well, I was amply rewarded. These are moderately difficult Sunday puzzles (and you know what I mean if you do the Times Sunday puzzles) which are just enough different from those in the Times that they represented a pleasant challenge for me. Piscop's sense of humor, as seen in the definitions, is unique (and different from that of the NYT's Will Shortz) and I literally found myself laughing out loud at times.

If you like to play with words, the clues are TOO clever, and if you don't enjoy obscure trivia clues, these puzzles are for you...the answers are quite elementary, but the clues are priceless..I'll order another volume!The Washington Post Sunday Crossword Puzzles, Volume 15

I am an avid crossword puzzle fan, but I'd never done one from the Washington Post. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the puzzles. My only complaint is that past issues of the Sunday puzzle books are very difficult to find, even on Amazon --the biggest surprise of all.
