 Keeps you busy! Sep 14, 2009
This is another great book of Sudoku puzzles for experienced gamers. The "Light and Easy" category is a bit harder than those you get in the drugstore, and the demanding ones take some time. This is great for the sudoku person who hates to get stuck for too long, but likes a challenge. It's pretty big and heavy though - not great for traveling.
Love that size! Nov 16, 2008
I have purchased 6 of these books. I love the size of the puzzles. The size and different difficulties make it a fun book to do over and over.

Ultimate 1000 Oct 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 Ultimate Sudoku 1000: The puzzles have only one solution; the grids are 4 ½" x 4 1/2". There are 1,000 puzzles in this book: 450 easy; 200 moderate; 180 demanding, and 170 very challenging. I cut the pages out and put them on a clipboard. The only improvement I would suggest to the publisher is to perforate the pages. (Don't confuse this book with Shortz's The Ultimate Sudoku Challenge [100 puzzles]. I did and now have two of the latter instead of two of the former.)

Very large Jul 06, 2008
Was surprised by how large the book is (I guess I should have guessed that 1000 puzzles would be a large book). Too large for taking for travel. Too many of the puzzles are "easy" (450 out of 1000). But it was inexpensive!!
