WF Graham Criss Cross Crossword Puzzle Book - Spiral Bound Brain Teasers Travel Puzzles Book with over 300 Puzzles, (4165)

These are really great puzzles. Good to keep your mind active. Some pages have two puzzles, other only one larger puzzle. The spiral binding makes it easier to work through the pages. Good price too. Update! I have just finished this book and the last puzzle shows 1 x 9 letter word, but the grid shows a 10 letter word which is not shown, it also shows 1x3 letter word but the grid shows 4x3 letter words. This makes it very difficult to complete this last puzzle. The book has 338 puzzles but the solutions only go as far as 324, so no chance of completing this final puzzle.

Great puzzle book for a long flight.

I'll start by saying I'm not some superbrain (I just reviewed the Times Quick Cryptic Crossword book, and couldn't do any!) Compared to other puzzles like those found in "Puzzler Collection", these are very easy. They are much smaller, with fewer words to find. These all have around 30 words, whereas Puzzler ones have nearer 60, so you don't have to look hard to find the correct word. There are very few occurrences where you have to "look ahead" if there are two words that will fit, so it's fairly straightforward. There doesn't seem to be any progression through the book either. They're all the same sort of level. There is a minor annoyance that each group of words has the heading like "5 Letter Words" and "Words" looks to be part of the list. A bit of space between the headings and the lists would have been better (see photo). However, for a nice, cheap and gentle mind exercise as an alternative to watching TV, it fits the bill.

Love all these criss cross book

Great size and good that it folds back on itself.

The product was delivered within the time frame, which was good, however there's a couple of issues. 1) I started doing one of the puzzles, which is 185, and it got to one of the words, there's been an error. So the word does match the words as it wouldn't make sense. 2) On the puzzle 338, there's a word that's been done and it's "sport," which doesn't relate to language at all... So I tried to check the answers, just in case I wasn't reading it properly and the solutions only go up to 324... It's either a problem some of you may have found or it's just a faulty one? Either way, it's decent for money and it's an ideal size to carry in a bag, I just don't understand how it's wrong...

Easy to use excellent prompt delivery good price

Love this last for ages and keeps the mind occupied
