the clues and grids, they^re really in a class all their own. Each one has its

configurations or wrapped around a cube, or there may even be TWO sets of clues
for a pair of identical grids. Think you^re up to the challenge? This hefty
book, with over 150 puzzles, is perfect for crossword lovers in search of
something new.</span></p>
