Hard-to-Solve Word Puzzles
by Henry Hook

Your brain will work overtime to come up with the solutions to these clever word games. Each one has a little twist, something unusual to keep crossword and other puzzle lovers on their toes. Around and Abouts will get heads spinning in search of the letters that fit in a circular grid; "around" answers go counterclockwise, while "about" clues overlap them in a clockwise fashion. Work it out from Tops to Bottoms, where two letters fit into every square; Crushword also crunches several letters — sometimes more than four — into each grid. Answers to Weavers clues form a continuous chain, with the first letter fitting into a central starred space; the next four go into adjoining numbered spots. The rest shuttle back and forth across and around the diagram. This book also includes Quadrants, Crazy Eights, Catching Some Z's, Siamese Twins, Honeycombs and other great puzzles.  Buy this book now!
