The New York Times Toughest Crossword Puzzles series has always been incredibly popular with the crossword set, but there has never been an omnibus compilation -- until now. The MegaOmnibus contains a whopping 300 New York Times crosswords, all culled from Saturday, the most challenging day of the week. At a minuscule price per cranium-cracking puzzle, this book of super stumpers is also a super value.

Good But Not That Tough,
By
This review is from: New York Times Toughest Crossword MegaOmnibus, Volume 1 (NY Times) (Paperback)
The title of the book is a bit misleading, though strictly speaking it might be historically correct. These are good and entertaining crosswords, but surprisingly easy compared with current N.Y. Times Saturday puzzles. I find I can typically solve a crossword from this book in about half the time a current puzzle takes.

The toughest?,
By Helen K. Hale (Oil City, PA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: New York Times Toughest Crossword MegaOmnibus, Volume 1 (NY Times) (Paperback)
I'm no super-brain, but I really expected more from this collection. The regular New York Times Sunday Crossword books are superior to this edition.

Not the *toughest*,
By
This review is from: New York Times Toughest Crossword MegaOmnibus, Volume 1 (NY Times) (Paperback)
I guess I expected these crosswords to be along the line of the Sunday Times puzzles. Briefly, if you like your crosswords really tough like I do, these ones will be way too easy. I put the book away after doing only a couple and haven't touched it since.
