Book Doesn't come apart with use September 6, 2007
This is a well-made paperback book. It has easy, intermediate, and advanced puzzles. I found the advanced ones not to be so difficult that it took the pleasure out of the game. I liked the whole presentation of the book. Nicely made and laid out!
 Not for beginners February 28, 2007

I have done several Sudoku Books and this one is NOT for beginners, or low intermediates. After the pages 1-7 it gets really hard then you have to cheat!!
 The perfect challenge for any sudoku enthusiast - highly recommended! September 2, 2006

This is definitely one of the more challenging sudoku books I've tried. The puzzles start off fairly easy, but become almost impossible to solve by the end. The book is divided into sections for easy, medium, and hard puzzles, and within each section puzzles are also ranked on a difficulty scale from one to five. I really enjoyed the challenge here, and still have not solved most of the harder ones. One particularly nice thing about this collection is that the grids are fairly large, so there's plenty of room to pencil in options and notes as you work, which is definitely a must for the more advanced puzzles! In addition, all of the solutions are provided at the back of the book, so you can check your work. I'd highly recommend this collection to any sudoku enthusiast. However, I will offer a word of warning to those who have already enjoyed this book and are looking for others like it - not all of Tammy Seto's books are the same! I've also purchased her book "Sudoku Fever," which turned out to be patronizingly easy. Even the rankest of beginners would become bored quickly. I have not, however, tried her book "Sudoku Mania," so am not sure where that falls on the difficulty scale.
Review of Sudoku: More than 200 Fun and Challenging Japanese Number Puzzles by Tammy Seto August 21, 2006
I am currently completing the puzzles in this book and so far, am enjoying it.
 Pretty but not useful May 8, 2006

This book of puzzles is the most frustrating one of many I have bought. The numbers are put into pretty design arrangements that have nothing to do with the difficulty of the pattern. Some labeled beginner are quite difficult, while at least one labeled intermediate had only one step logic involved. I like to know the difficulty level before I begin so I can choose one appropriate for the time available and challenge that I am in the mood for. You have no idea with this book. There are many good books available, no reason to buy this one.
