What is Sudoku? Its a global sensation! Sudoku is a hybrid: its name derives from Japanese (loosely translated it means number in an allotted place) and its form can be traced back to the magic squares invented in 18th century Switzerland. The result is a numerical brainteaser that is fiendish, compulsive, and, in the simplicity of its rules, sublimely beautiful. This collection, which ranges in difficulty from the gentle through the tough to the diabolical, is the most extensive on the market. Already a bestseller in Japan and England, Sudoku is now going global! This addictive puzzle is now sweeping the nation! Puzzles are now featured in many top newspapers across the country, including: The Globe and Mail, National Post, Toronto Star and the Calgary Heraldwith many more sure to follow. With every puzzle being completely different, Sudoku is sure to appeal to puzzle-fans of all levels.
I enjoy using this book, paper is great, space is wonderful and the easy is not too easy! I do the puzzles everyday because it is a joy to work with!
Wonderfully big grids

I love this one! Each puzzle is big, big, big -- one puzzle per 8 X 10 page. Lots of room to solve in. The quality of the paper is great. And there are 16 by 16 grids in the back -- my favorites. Buy this one, not the so-called "jumbo" puzzles by the same author.
Definitely choose Total Sudoku

This is a fantastic book for sudoku starters everywhere. It has instructions that are really well written and a huge grid that is much easier to use and see than others. Another reviewer said that the levels are spread out, but that is so you can try different levels and work yourself up to levels. In a way it keeps you on a "roll." If you chose any sudoku book let this be the one.
This is the perfect Sudoku book

I love that this book has such large grids. It makes it a lot easier to makes notes in the boxes and do erasing without making it a big mess. There are different levels of puzzles and some challenging circular and larger puzzles at the end. I definitely recomend this book for Sudoku addicts such as myself.
Perfect Sudoku Book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This book is very well thought out. The puzzles are big, with enough room to sketch in numbers, and there is plenty of room in the margins for notes. The paper is opaque enough that the puzzle on the other side doesn't show through. I like how the the different level puzzles are shuffled for variety. For something different, there are circular puzzles, and killer 16 x 16 grids. I think that this is the best sudoku book out there.
