CUSTOMER REVIEWS (Average Customer Rating: 4.5 based on 7 reviews)

Just Right by Liking Life 5 Stars
September 28, 2009
This collection of Sudoku puzzles is just what we were looking for. Most other books contain many that are too easy. These are just hard enough to make us think while still being solvable.

satisfied customer by Another Sue (Missouri) 5 Stars

I got to where the 100 "hard" puzzles took the same effort that five-star puzzles in the newspaper were requiring of me. The next 100 "challenging" puzzles were just that. Soon I was working primarily the challenging ones and going back to a hard one when my brain needed a rest. I don't have any complaint about the paper it's printed on or the size of the book. Either regular ink or pencil will do. I wish puzzle publishers would get over wasting pages by printing answers. Either it comes out right, or you do it over. A few pages explaining advanced strategy would have been more welcome, though the strategies are a joy to discover on my own. Still, I have come to a point where I need some coaching. This is an excellent book if you don't want to waste your money and time on fast, fun, easy-to-medium puzzles.

Good puzzles, no resorting to guesswork by Anon (Washington, DC, USA) 4 Stars
July 05, 2009
The puzzles in this book are as advertised, challenging, but doable without resorting to guesswork. I agree with the reviewer who said that the quality of the paper leaves something to be desired, and the amount of the book taken up by the solutions is too much. However, the price is reasonable for 200 puzzles, and the book is compact enough to carry around easily.

Hard, yes! But crummy print job. by J. Wright (Ocean Springs, MS) 3 Stars
February 22, 2009
I wasn't getting any kick from the "medium" level any more, so ordered this one. YES, they are hard! Good puzzles. The printing, though, is rotten. It's on cheap newsprint-type paper (don't use a felt-tip pen) and with so little margin that it's really awkward trying to write on the left-hand pages. A third of the book is answers, printed just two to a page. What a waste. Who uses them anyway? For the same amount of paper, they could have printed 8 or 15 answers to a page and made more margin on the puzzle pages. But then the book wouldn't have looked so thick - a marketing fooler that fooled ME.

Maybe too tough, but then that's the point, right? by Ken Mora (Los Angeles, CA United States) 5 Stars
September 30, 2008
Well, I've gone through quite a few sudoku books and thought I was hot stuff. Then Ferocious Sudoku book assaulted my ego. Well, if you're looking to step up to the big leagues, this is the book; I haven't found a tougher one.
