Love The Sunday times which my local newspaper used to carry, but no more. So I bought this book. Very old puzzles so some clues are a bit out of date unless you lived in NYC 30 years ago but many clues are timeless. Biggest problem is it looked like these puzzles were just photocopies enlarged to fit on the pages and some were difficult to read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nonpareil!
Reviewed in the United States on October 29, 2012

There really is no puzzle like a Sunday Times puzzle.

I dearly wish I had kept track of which volumes of these I've done. Now all I can do is try to convince myself that I have NOT already done all of them!

They are plenty challenging enough to be thoroughly engaging but rarely hard enough to make you mad. (I do allow myself to peek but also keep track of how many times I look, and my objective is always to solve them with no help at all!)

More often I look up clues on the internet and have discovered tiny, obscure, beautiful island countries surrounded by vast oceans; learned that there is such a thing as "Heraldry" and a little bit about what it is; improved my memory; and increased my vocabulary.

The only downside is not knowing where to go next for more puzzles!

1.0 out of 5 stars A Disappointment
Reviewed in the United States on April 20, 2021
Verified Purchase
The printing in this book is terrible - many pages are smudged. Some puzzles are so tiny the numbers in the squares are blurred and unreadable, with barely enough space to write in a letter. Also, this was published in 1984, so the puzzles are even older than that, which makes the "current" references and slang more difficult.

3.0 out of 5 stars printing is often blurry
Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2024

The puzzles themselves are OK, although the size of the print in the larger puzzles is very small. The bigger problem is that the printing process is inconsistent. On some of the pages the ink has pooled around the letters making them very difficult to read. Other pages are printed crisply. I'm on puzzle # 12 and have had to skip 3 puzzles so far because they were too difficult to read.

Puzzles ok but on many pages the numbers and letters are smudged and blurry in clues and grid areas, have to decipher what they say before getting to the clues and answers . In other puzzles the grid and clues are so reduced in size that they are difficult to read--as well as smudged in places.

I think that this book comes from the time when crosswords were full of arcane references and long forgotten words.I find these crosswords frustrating to solve due to the aforementioned issues...The editor (will weng) has to take the credit (or blame) for frustrating crossword solvers...I expected the same standards that Eugene Maleska & Will Shortz had during their time as editors of the NY Times crosswords puzzles.
