 No genius created this! May 27, 2010
Puzzles are way too easy. And, Sheldon's "Master Class in Advanced Strategies" is a joke. "Trailing"? He needs to read Peter Gordon's MENSA Guide to Solving Sudoku! Learn real solving tools: X-, XY-, XYZ-wings, rectangles, fish, etc etc etc.
 dissapointing Nov 15, 2009
where to find really really hard sudokus?
That one told me that it had 9 circles of sudoku hell....
No way.
Even the last one that was supposed to be really hard
was solved in 45 minutes....
 This will be your favorite Sudoku Book Mar 23, 2009
I thought this book was perfect. Hard and challenging, but not impossible. It was just right! I love that he does NOT use trialing for the results... only puzzle techniques. I have finished both of his books, and can't wait until he does another. It's my all-time favorite!
challenging but slightly annoying Dec 27, 2008
The small size of the numbers in the already filled in squares is annoying, if you are used to a different format. I got over this after about ten puzzles.
Make sure you read the notes in the forward about "trailing" and if you think that puzzles which involve what they call trailing are illegit, note the list of those puzzles, which allows you to steer clear of them.
It's smart to have blank grids at the back...sometimes it is great to start over clean!
These are hard...harder than the last book I did which was Japanese and supposed to be the hardest possible!
Excellent book for the Advanced Sudoku addict Sep 13, 2008
This book is excellent for the person who can do a medium to hard puzzle in minutes, not for a beginner at all. Do not be fooled by the instructions in the front, it will not help you at this level of sudoku.
This book was a challenge to me which is why I loved it so much! I developed my own techniques to conquer the puzzle. Mentally, a real workout.
Now, the only problem is I am having trouble finding another book like it, with advanced puzzles to challenge me. I need Sudoku Genius II.
