I think this is a great book of sudoku. Puzzles are a nice size and book is a good size to carry about. Just a fun puzzle to do when you have a few extra minutes. Warning, you may get addicted. Thanks!

Good First Book---to see what level you should buy next by E (Minnesota)  3 Stars
February 20, 2009
It is a fun way to start Suduko. My husband is pretty good and is doing the hard ones and I'm starting with the easy. I wish at more strategies for solving them. It has some basic ones that I figured out on my own but not intermediate to advanced strategies. But it also isn't a teaching book. The answer key in the back appears to have a mistake. On the on bonus 12 square ones the answers have a 13 but no 12. But It wouldn't affect solving them and you can check your work without looking at the answers.

Easy to Hard #3 by Donald M. Hayes (Montgomery, Texas) 5 Stars
October 07, 2008
I look for Sudoku books with three qualities. First, I want puzzles that have only one solution. If I find a book that includes puzzles with more than one solution I discard it. Two, I want books with grids large enough that I can enter candidates in the cells. Third, I want books with challenging puzzles. Many of the descriptions on Amazon omit such info.
I prefer grids that are about 4 ½" x 4 ½". The grids in my newspaper are about 3" x 3" (which is tolerable because not many candidates are needed).
Shortz's Sudoku Easy to Hard # 3: The puzzles have only one solution; the grids are 4 ½" x 4 1/2", and 25 are "Light and Easy," 25 "Moderate," 25 "Demanding," and 25 "Beware! Very Challenging."

Good, with some flaws by James Kirschner (Seattle, WA USA) 3 Stars
March 16, 2008
I was challenged and happy with this book of sudoku until I reached the special "Giant Sudoku" section at the end. This section features a 12x12 sudoku grid in which you are meant to fill in the numbers 1-12. However, the initial setup includes the number 13 in all puzzles!
Other than that, the book provides a nice ramp up from easy to challenging.
