A challenge - not for the faint hearted!
I've given this a high rating because it is a good cryptic puzzle book but you do need to have a massive vocabulary of including seldom used words and jargon!! I'm struggling but do one when I feel in the mood for a real challenge.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

It is what it says on the cover Jumbo Cryptic Crosswords. Keeps me occupied for hours.
Crosswords of different compilers so some easier than others, but all really engrossing and enjoyable.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
